Zalgiris is a typically a very strong team in the Lithuanian league especially at home. Comparing them with Honved, it is totally a different league of teams when Honved competes with teams like Ferencvaros and Mol Vidi. These are the kind of teams that regularly appears in the final qualifying stages of the Europa League. With this in mind, Honved is definitely the better team in this match and I anticipate that they would not just defend their lead but probably grab an away goal or two. Zalgiris is a strong attacking team but in the 1st leg, it is evident that Honved's defence proves to be pretty strong for Zalgiris. As many would have been familiar with Zalgiris, even in their own league, they have always been stronger in the 2nd half and have most often leaked goals in the 1st half. They were always succesful in the 2nd half coming back from 0-1 or 0-2 down but I don't think they will be able to come back against Honved. You just can compare an apple with an orange.
Honved to win.
