Match Preview

Hibernian carry a slender 2-1 lead from the first leg into this second-leg meeting with Shkendija in Skopje, with a place in the Conference League play-off round on the line. It's an early test for both clubs domestically too, Shkendija sit third in the Macedonian First League as they defend their title, while Hibernian are just getting going in the new Scottish Premiership season. The opener at Easter Road went to the wire: Owen Elding broke through for Hibernian in the 73rd minute, Marko Gjorgjievski levelled almost immediately for Shkendija, before Warren O'Hora nabbed a stoppage-time winner from Jordan Obita's corner. Hibernian then lost their league opener 1-2 to Motherwell, while Shkendija have made a winning start to their own title defence. The two clubs have never met before this tie. Our prediction: 1-1
