Noah vs Sigma Olomouc prediction: EUROPE: Conference League – League phase betting tips on match 2025-11-05 17:45.
[p]Unbeaten Noah aim to continue their impressive start when they host a winless Sigma Olomouc side in the UEFA Conference League. [/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]This is only Noah’s second Conference League main-draw appearance, and manager Sandro Perković will be confident of bettering last season’s disappointing 31st-place finish. The Armenian champions have already equalled their four-point haul from last season, subsequently occupying 11th place heading into matchday three after a 1-1 draw away at Univ. Craiova. They will welcome a return home on Thursday, where Perković’s side have tasted defeat just once in five European matches this season (W3, D1), but their overall recent form is less encouraging, having won just once in five previous games across all competitions (D3, L1) after losing their game at the weekend.[/p]
[p]The mood in the Sigma Olomouc camp will feel decidedly different, having failed to win either of their opening two Conference League outings (D1, L1). Not many eyebrows were raised following a 2-0 opening day defeat at Fiorentina, but the 1-1 home draw with Raków Częstochowa would have been much less palatable. Although that result extended a winless run to six games in European competition (D1, L5), they will hope to have gained some momentum following a 4-1 domestic win on Sunday to extend their unbeaten run to five competitive games (W2, D3). [/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]This will be the first meeting between the two clubs in UEFA competition. Noah have played Czech opposition once before, overcoming Mladá Boleslav 2-0 in last season’s league phase.[/p]
[p]Hot Stats and Streaks[/p]
[p]Noah’s last three wins have been accompanied by a clean sheet. [/p]

[p]Key Players to Watch and Missing Players[/p]
[p]HĂ©lder Ferreira scored on Saturday for Noah, taking his total to 12 goal contributions this season (G5, A7) – only one of his previous 16 goals arrived after the hour mark. Stepan Langer netted in Sigma’s win on Sunday, but that is not necessarily a lucky omen, as the Czechs have lost three of his previous six goalscoring appearances (W3).[/p]
[p]Noah’s Gonçalo Gregório is a long-term absentee with a knee injury, while Jan Kliment and Yunusa Muritala are missing for Sigma.[/p]

[p]Betting Analysis[/p]
[p]This could be a cagey affair, so it might be worth backing Noah to win and under 2.5 goals in light of Sigma’s recent away struggles in Europe.[/p]
