Astana vs Lausanne Preview

Astana were defeated 3-1 in the first leg at Stade de la Tuilière. Lausanne were running away with a clean 3-0 scoreline, but Bosnia and Herzegovina international Ivan Basic snatched a consolation for Astana in the 90th minute. Astana will need to even the score on aggregate and claim a lead to expect passage to the next round.

Sary-Kokter are currently second in the Kazakhstan Premier League table. The hosts have participated in all editions of the UEFA Conference League qualifying since its inception in the 2021-22 season. Last season, they reached the League Phase, finishing in the 28th spot.

Lausanne accomplished their mission in the first leg, although they lost concentration towards the end of the meeting, which led to the goal they conceded. However, we expect a change of pattern in the return fixture, with head coach Peter Zeidler likely to adopt a more balanced style between attacking and defending.

Les Bleu et Blanc finished fifth last season in the Swiss Super League to qualify for the Conference League second qualifying round. They crushed the Macedonian side Vardar 6-2 to reach the third qualifying round. Lausanne must avoid conceding early in the clash, which could boost the confidence of the home side.
