- 谢尔伯恩在过去的三场欧洲主场比赛中输掉了两场
- 哈肯已经在资格赛中淘汰了安德莱赫特和克卢日
- 两支球队都在Shelbourne得分；最近三场主场比赛
Shels可能会被超越
谢尔伯恩在爱尔兰联赛中的卫冕表现不佳，但他们本赛季的一个积极方面是，他们历史上首次进入欧洲比赛的小组赛阶段，成为第三支进入小组赛阶段的爱尔兰球队。
在欧冠资格赛中输给卡拉巴格，在欧洲联赛中输给里耶卡之后，谢尔斯最终越过了林菲尔德的防线，进入了联盟的小组赛阶段。
哈肯知道进球的路
他们的第一场比赛将迎战瑞典队哈肯，哈肯是另一支以强劲的大陆表现弥补国内表现不佳的球队。
黄蜂队在Allsvenskan排名中游，但在资格赛中击败了安德莱赫特、布兰和克卢日。
他们在过去的三届瑞典杯中赢得了两届冠军，包括去年的冠军，所以很明显他们有参加杯赛的倾向，看起来对Shelbourne来说可能太强大了。
客队在联盟资格赛中以7比7战胜了克卢日，他们希望能战胜谢尔斯，谢尔斯在资格赛中在主场被卡拉巴格和里耶卡轻松击败。
将安德莱赫特淘汰出欧联杯资格赛的球队应该以最小的大惊小怪来击败这些对手。
哈肯在过去的八场比赛中已经进了24球，他们希望以3比1赢得这场比赛。
- Shelbourne have lost two of their last three European home games
- Hacken have already put out Anderlecht and Cluj in qualifying
- Both teams have scored in Shelbourne’s last three home games
Shels may be outclassed
Shelbourne have had a poor title defence in the League of Ireland but the one positive from their season is that they have reached the group stages of a European competition for the first time in their history, becoming just the third Irish team to do so.
After losses to Qarabag in Champions League qualifying and Rijeka in the Europa League equivalent, Shels eventually got over the line against Linfield to reach the group stage of the Conference League.
Hacken know the way to goal
Their first game sees them host Swedish side Hacken, who are another team making up for a poor domestic showing with strong continental performances.
The Wasps are midtable in the Allsvenskan but have beaten Anderlecht, Brann and Cluj along their qualification journey.
They have won two of the last three Swedish Cups, including last year’s, so clearly have a predisposition for cup competitions and look likely to be too strong for Shelbourne.
The visitors put seven past Cluj in their Conference League qualifier and are fancied to get the better of Shels, who were beaten comfortably at home by Qarabag and Rijeka in qualification.
The team who knocked Anderlecht out of Europa League qualifying should see off these opponents with a minimum of fuss.
Hacken have scored 24 goals in their last eight matches and are fancied to win this one 3-1.
