REF’s picks

Brighton are heavy favourites against Kauno Zalgiris and should dominate this Conference League fixture from the outset. Despite several absentees, their Premier League pedigree and recent form make a four-goal handicap cover entirely plausible. However, rotation could disrupt their rhythm in the second half, potentially keeping the margin closer than expected.

1. 1Brighton enter in blistering form with four wins and a draw from their last five matches.
2. 2Kauno Zalgiris have struggled heavily in European competition matches away from home.
3. 3A substantial injury list for Brighton could disrupt squad cohesion as the match progresses.
