SK Rapid vs Omonia prediction: EUROPE: Conference League – League phase betting tips on match 2025-12-10 20:00.
[p]Bottom of the table and managerless Rapid Vienna host an in-form Omonia side looking to stay in the top 24 at the Allianz Stadion.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]This has been a miserable campaign for Rapid Vienna, who have lost all four of their UEFA Conference League fixtures so far and begin round five as the only side who can mathematically not finish in the top 16. Across all competitions, the Green-Whites have not won since early November (D1, L5) with interim manager Stefan Kulovits in charge for the last two matches and yet to turn the form around (L2). They went down 2-1 at home in the Austrian Bundesliga on Saturday which means Rapid have lost four successive games and have lost six of their last seven at the Allianz Stadion.[/p]
[p]Omonia will arrive in Austria after winning their last three competitive matches, a huge improvement after they had failed to record a victory in their three previous fixtures across all competitions (D2, L1). Away from home, Henning Berg’s side have lost only one of their last seven games (W4, D2) and picked up another win on the road with a 3-0 victory at Olympiakos Nicosia on Saturday. Despite their strong recent form, the Shamrock begin this round in 21st place, with only a one-point cushion above teams outside the play-off positions and host an impressive Raków in their final league phase fixture.[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]This will be the fourth H2H between the sides. Both won their home leg by a two-goal margin during the 1998/99 UEFA Cup, while Omonia secured a 3-1 home victory in last season’s Conference League.[/p]
