- Dinamo Tbilisi have won two, drawn two and lost one of their five away fixtures across all competitions.
- US Mondorf-Les-Bains have won three, drawn one and lost one of their last five across all competitions.
An entertaining fixture at Stade Achille Hammerel
US Mondorf-Les-Bains have played some good football under Martin Forkel since his appointment as head coach on 1 July 2026 and have moulded a well-disciplined side who are capable of playing compact football or stretching the field to create overloads with their front five.
The Luxembourgian hosts have a decent run of form coming into Thursday's UEFA Conference League qualification clash with Dinamo Tbilisi (W3, D1, L1 across their last five) and their games against FC Victoria Rosport (L), Union Titus Petange (W) and UNA Strassen (D0-0) over the last three have been solid enough to suggest they can make this a difficult night for the visitors.
Jean-Paul Kumbi has been their danger man in the final third with two goals in the last five games, but the general play of Mondorf has been built around winning the second ball, getting bodies behind the ball and then quickly moving forward.
Dinamo are a 4-2-3-1 side, much like Mondorf, but they use their width more than their opponents, they are more effective in set-piece situations and they are better at counter-attacking in a more organised fashion.
Temuri Ketsbaia has done a fantastic job with them since taking over on 24 April 2026 and they come into this encounter in fine form after two consecutive wins.
The 2-1 loss at FC Gagra prior to their back-to-back victories over Samgurali Tskaltubo and FC Dinamo Batumi has given them some bite, but their overall record of six wins, two draws and two defeats in the last ten matches shows the volatility of this side.
Dinamo have the momentum but Mondorf won’t back down
Dinamo are the clear 1.35 favourites to win this contest, but US Mondorf-Les-Bains are 6.5 and the draw is 5.25, so there's little in the match odds.
We'll take the Georgian side to edge it at the odds-on price because they have the superior momentum, an away goal average of 2.40 and they are simply a bigger and better club than their hosts.
However, USMLB are unbeaten at home this season in all competitions (W4, D1) so this could be a stern test for Dinamo, who will need to be at their best to ensure the victory. Our main selection is a Dinamo win or draw result because Mondorf's superb home numbers (2.00 scored, 0.40 conceded per match) suggest this could be a close game, even with the visitors' greater away prowess.
