Rakow Czestochowa and Rapid Wien will square off in a UEFA Conference League clash on Thursday (November 27th). The game will be played at AcelorMittal Park.
The hosts are coming into the game on the back of a 3-1 defeat at home to Piast Gliwice in the Polish Ekstraklasa over the weekend. They were 1-0 down at the break thanks to Patryk Dziczek's goal just past the half-hour mark. German Barkovskiy made it 2-0 in the 57th minute while Dziczek completed his brace from the spot with 20 minutes left. Jonatan Brunes scored a late consolation strike.
Rapid, meanwhile, fell to a 2-1 defeat at home to Grazer AK in the Austrian Bundesliga. All three goals were scored in the second half, with Daniel Maderner and Ramiz Harakate scoring either side of Ercan Kara to help the visitors claim maximum points.

Rakow Czestochowa vs Rapid Wien Prediction
Rakow are seeking to advance to the knockout rounds of a main European club competition for the first time in their history. They are playing their continental home games away from their usual home ground but are still pre-game favorites here.
Rapid Vienna made it to the quarterfinals of the UECL last season but are unlikely to replicate that feat this term. They are one of three sides yet to register their first points on the board.
Back this trend to continue in a narrow win for the hosts.
