Breidablik play host to Santa Coloma in a match of their second-leg of Europa Conference League Qualification. Having a narrow lead in the first-leg, the Iceland side will be keen to hold onto that while battling it out with the ones from Andorra at Kópavogsvöllur, this Thursday.
A week ago, Breidablik cruised to a surprising 1-0 away victory with the help of Isak Thorvaldsson scoring before the interval. However, UE Santa Coloma couldn’t place one ahead and ended up in a one-sided affair.
The 2009 Icelandic Cup win qualified Breidablik for their first ever European competition, entering the second qualifying round of the 2010/11 UEFA Europa League. They faced Scottish Premier League side Motherwell and lost by 0-2 on aggregate.
The side won its first match in a European competition in the first qualifying round of the 2013/14 UEFA Europa League, with a 4-0 win against FC Santa Coloma. Over their past six fixtures, Oskar Hrafn Porvaldsson’s men netted 13 times which gives them an average number of goals scored per match of 2.17.
On the other side, Santa Coloma made its first appearance in European competition in the 2010/11 UEFA Europa League after finishing second in the league in the 2009/10 season.
It has become apparent that the visitors have struggled for goals over their last 6 encounters, recording the unsatisfactory return of just 2.
