Legia Warsaw vs Lincoln Red Imps Prediction and Betting Tips


Legia Warsaw host Lincoln Red Imps at the Polish Army Stadium on Thursday in the final round of the UEFA Conference League 2025-26 league stage The home side have arguably been the most disappointing side in the Conference League this season, with last season’s quarter-finalists knocked out of this year’s edition despite still having a game to play.

Legia suffered their fourth defeat in five league stage matches last week, losing 2-1 to Noah FC. Wojskowi started on the front foot, taking the lead after just three minutes thanks to a Mileta Rajović strike, but a dip in performance after the break allowed their rivals to come from behind and grab the points.

Lincoln Red Imps, meanwhile, welcomed Sigma Olomouc to the Europa Sports Park last week looking for a response after going winless in the previous two rounds. They were unimpressive but made the most of their home advantage to claim a 2-1 comeback win, with Nicholas Pozo scoring the decisive winner.

Unlike their eliminated opponents, Lincoln has everything to play for in Thursday’s final round. They are in the final place of the knockout phase with seven points and would guarantee it with a win in Poland.

Legia Warsaw vs Lincoln Red Imps Prediction

Wojskowi are on a three game losing streak and are winless in their last 11 competitive games. Despite their poor form, they remain clear favorites for Thursday’s game due to the huge gulf in class and quality between the teams and hope the difference is reflected in the scoreline.

The Red Imps, meanwhile, have won their last four games on the trot. They will be looking to capitalize on their hosts’ woeful form, but will need something really special to come away with anything on Thursday.
