Ujpest - Basel

Europa Conference League - Qualification - Semi-finals
The quality of both teams is on a completely different level, which can be seen in the value of the players of both teams. The value of the Swiss team Basel is 47 million Euro while the value of the home team from Hungary is 7 million Euro. In the newly formed Conference League, Basel must beat teams like Ujpest by a class difference.

In the current season, Basel has won 4 / 4 matches. They went into this round against Tirana with a 5-0 score (home 3:0, away 0:2). The start of the season is going very well for Basel, as in their last Swiss league match they beat Sion 6:1.
Ujpest is an average team in the Hungarian league, finishing 6th out of 12 teams last season. This year they are also playing average. They reached to this round thanks to a win over Vaduz with a 5:2 score (home 2:1, away 1:3). They are in the ECL thanks to winning the cup.

First matches of the new season:
Ujpest 1:2 Puskas Academy

Basel 6:1 Sion
Grasshoppers 0:2 Basel

I expect a clear dominance of Basel with the obvious goal of securing advancement in the first game.

My bet:
Handicap: Basel -1.5 @ 2.25 (local bookie)

Ujpest 1:2 Basel = Bet KO

Basel lost the first half 1-0 but the break helped them to regain fresh energy and thanks to that they scored 2 goals in the second half and managed to win 2-1. Sadly, it wasn't enough for our bet.
