A true style clash
Match context
Thursday's UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026 match between Partizan Belgrade and UNA Strassen is a real chess match of styles and should be a compelling game. Partizan are looking to play with width, pace and territory against this compact and pragmatic UNA side.
Coach and approach
Saša Ilić has been appointed head coach of Partizan on 1 July 2026 and has taken some time to get the team to play his way, but the Black-Whites are now playing at a higher tempo, with more verticality and they're creating more overloads in the final third. Their front line has been lively and the 5-0 home thrashing of FK Radnik Surdulica last weekend, the week after a 2-2 away draw with FK Zemun, showed just how quickly Partizan can break a game open once the press starts to bite.
Black-Whites are Belgrade’s masters
UNA are a more solid and hard-to-break-down unit, which is exactly what Jérémy Deichelbohrer, also appointed on 1 July 2026, has shaped them to be. They're a deep-lying, compact team that sit in the middle of the field and block central channels, then look to hit opponents on the counter and from set pieces.
This will be a test for both coaches as the home side will look to overpower UNA, while the visitors will try to lock the game down and make it scrappy.
A Partizan win is likely, but we like the double chance bet on UNA to keep this a close game.
- Nicolas Perez has been in red-hot form with 2 goals in 2 UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026 games so far, and he has 4 goals in 5 games for UNA, who have scored 7 in total during the same period.
- Partizan look the more likely winner of the game at home, but UNA are on a 2-game winning streak, after beating Fiorita 1-0 at home and then 2-0 away, so they will travel to Stadion FK Partizan in Serbia with real momentum.
