MATCH PREVIEW:
Mura were outclassed by Ludogorets in their UCL Qualification match 3-1 (Aggregate 6-3) and backed it up with a 1-1 draw against NK Bravo in their domestic league.
Hence, the Slovenia side does not have the best of form coming into this clash.
After 3 matches, Mura are placed last in the league table with 2 losses and a draw from their matches.
On the other hand, Zalgiris are table toppers in the A Lyga with 41 points from 19 matches.
But their pursuit of European football was halted by Ferencvaros in their UCL Qualification match where they lost 3-1 (5-1 on aggregate).
Apart from this, Zalgiris have been in good form winning 3 of their last 5 matches across all competitions.
The Lithuania side will look to get back to winning ways as they have lost their last 2 matches.
Both sides will be meeting each other for the first time in any competitive competition.
Line-ups
Mura:
Obradovic, Karnicnik, Gorenc, Marusko, Kous, Horvat, Kozar, Sturm, Bobicanec, Marosa and Cipot
Three clinical counter-attacks punished Žalgiris who made a decent effort and had several opportunities. Champions league is over but we go forward to Europa league. pic.twitter.com/PTRQmkcmmn

Zalgiris:
Gertmonas, Mikoliunas, Diaw, Ljubisavljevic, Bopesu, Onazi, Verbickas, Kuklys, Kyeremeh, Tadic and Videmont
Prediction: Mura 1-2 Zalgiris
Mura has not been in the best of form coming into this one while Zalgiris even with back-to-back losses look in better shape.
We expect a close match with the away side to edge this one due to their current form.
