HeartsNo absentees
Thun welcome Heart of Midlothian to the Stockhorn Arena on Thursday 5 November, kick-off 5.45pm (UK time), with both sides still hunting a first win of the Conference League league phase.
The hosts have made a miserable start, losing both of their opening two games without scoring, and they sit 32nd of 36 on nil points after a pair of narrow defeats.
Hearts have fared only a little better, a single point from two matches their only reward, and this meeting of strugglers could easily hinge on one moment of quality.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson has gone through the numbers and landed on two bets for a tie between two sides still waiting for a first league-phase win.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Thun Draw No Bet | 8/11 (Paddy Power) | Thun have lost both of their league-phase games, but both defeats came by a single goal against useful opposition in Hajduk Split and Twente, and the Swiss side were far from disgraced. Back at the Stockhorn Arena, where they will fancy their chances against a Hearts team that has won none of its opening two games, the draw-no-bet market takes the sting out of a potential stalemate. Heart of Midlothian have managed only one goal in two outings and lost to nil on the road last time, so Thun not losing looks a sensible starting point at 8/11. |
| Under 1.5 goals | 9/2 (bet365) | There is little to suggest a goal glut at the Stockhorn Arena. Thun have scored zero and conceded just twice across their two defeats, with every game they have played in the competition settled by a single strike. Heart of Midlothian are hardly free-scoring either, netting once in two games and still waiting for a first away goal of the campaign. With both sides low on confidence and wary of defeat in a match that could shape who stays in the hunt for the knockout play-off places, a cagey, low-scoring affair at 9/2 for under 1.5 goals holds plenty of appeal. |

How Thun go into the game
Thun have found the Conference League a chastening experience so far. They lost both games by the same 1-0 scoreline, beaten at home by Hajduk Split last time out and edged out away at Twente, and they have yet to score a goal in the competition.
A tidy defensive record, just two goals conceded across those two defeats, offers a crumb of encouragement, but the lack of a cutting edge is the obvious worry for a team that has failed to score in both outings.
How Hearts go into the game
Heart of Midlothian were beaten 2-0 at Trabzonspor last time out, a chastening night on the road. That followed a 1-1 draw at home with Nordsjaelland and leaves Hearts 28th in the 36-team table with a single point.
On the road Hearts have been timid, losing their only away game to nil, and they have managed just one goal in two outings overall. A first win of the campaign looks a tall order against hosts who will sense an opportunity of their own.
Thun vs Hearts head-to-head
These two clubs have never met in a competitive fixture, so there is no head-to-head record to call on. Both are strangers at this level, each still chasing a first win of the league phase.
Thun vs Hearts predictions & betting tips
| Our Prediction | Odds & Bookmaker | Confidence | Why We’re Backing It |
|---|---|---|---|
| Thun to win | 7/5 (William Hill) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Hearts have failed to score in their only away game of the phase, and Thun will sense a rare chance to open their account on home soil. |
| Both teams to score – No | 9/5 (BoyleSports) | ⭐⭐⭐ | Hearts have not scored on their travels so far, and Thun have failed to find the net in either of their games. |
| Under 2.5 goals | 6/4 (BoyleSports) | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Thun’s two matches have produced just two goals combined, pointing firmly towards a tight contest. |
| Thun 1-0 | 12/1 (BoyleSports) | ⭐⭐ | A single goal has decided both of Thun’s games so far, and a repeat would suit the hosts here. |
Thun vs Hearts score prediction
With neither side scoring freely and both chasing a first win of the league phase, we expect a tense, low-scoring night likely to be decided by the odd goal, and Thun’s home advantage could just tip it their way. Score prediction: Thun 1-0 Hearts.
