Ordabasy
The Kazakh side almost managed a draw in Georgia during the first match, conceding in the 94th minute and ultimately losing 3-4. Now, the club needs to win by at least two goals at home to progress in the tournament. A one-goal victory would lead to extra time. It's worth noting that Ordabasy has lost three consecutive matches in the Conference League.

- Ordabasy has conceded in regular time in their last seven Conference League matches.

Ordabasy vs. Torpedo Kutaisi: Match Prediction
Both clubs showcased their attacking capabilities and defensive flaws in the first match. I anticipate a similarly attacking approach in the second leg, with little regard for defense. In Kutaisi, the opponents scored 4 goals in the first half alone. Additionally, the Georgians demonstrated incredible determination, scoring in added time in both the first and second halves.
The Kazakh team rarely excels defensively at home, having conceded in 5 of their last 6 European matches. However, they have also found the net in 5 of their last 7 home European matches. At least three goals have been scored in 5 of Torpedo's last 7 continental matches. The Caucasians have delighted with goals in their last nine European matches. Therefore, another exchange of goals is expected in the second leg.
My prediction – Both Teams to Score – Yes
