Dinamo Tirana vs Pafos Prediction

Dinamo Tirana host Pafos in the first leg of the UEFA Europa Conference League final qualifying round on 20 August 2026. The Albanian side have demonstrated impressive resilience in their European campaign, recovering from defeats to advance past Astana, Aluminij, and Auda through strong home performances. Pafos arrive as the more experienced continental outfit, having recently competed in the Europa League and Champions League group stage, but face a stern test in Elbasan where the hosts have shown they can overcome higher-ranked opponents.

Form and Head-to-Head

Dinamo Tirana's last ten matches show five wins, two draws, and three losses at home, averaging 1.64 goals for and 0.97 against. The hosts have won their last two home fixtures with a combined 7-0 scoreline and enter this tie with significant match practice from their European campaign. Pafos have recorded four wins, two draws, and four losses away from home over the same period, averaging 1.48 goals for and 1.15 against. The two sides have never met before. Dinamo Tirana's domestic league campaign begins on 23 August, meaning this European fixture comes just three days before their first Albanian Superliga match, which could influence team selection.
