Trabzonspor hosts Heart Of Midlothian on 22 October 2026 at 19:45 in the second round of the UEFA Europa Conference League at Papara Park. The Turkish side won 2–0 against Beşiktaş in their last domestic fixture and opened their European campaign with a 4–2 victory over KuPS, conceding twice from eight shots on target. Trabzonspor have won all four matches under new manager Thomas Reis since early September, scoring at least two goals in each. Heart Of Midlothian arrive in Anatolia after a 7–1 defeat to Celtic in the Scottish Premiership, their heaviest loss under Vouteren Vrancken. The Edinburgh club drew 1–1 at home against Nordsjaelland in their Conference League opener and sit 20th in the league phase standings.
Form and H2H
Trabzonspor have won six of their last ten matches across all competitions, averaging 2.10 goals for and 1.10 against. At home, they restrict opponents to under 2.5 goals in nine of ten recent matches and have conceded no more than one goal in nine of ten at Papara Park. Heart Of Midlothian have won five of their last ten, with three draws, averaging 2.00 goals for and 1.51 against. On the road this season they have won only two of nine league matches. The Scottish side have scored in all ten of their recent matches across all competitions, though in Conference League play they have managed no more than five shots on target in eight of ten appearances. Trabzonspor press down the flanks at home, earning four or more corner kicks in nine of ten recent matches at their stadium.
Best bet
Heart Of Midlothian over 0.5 goals. The visitors have scored in every match across their last ten outings in all competitions, a streak that extends into their Conference League campaign. Despite their recent heavy defeat and limited attacking output in European play, they remain capable of finding the net once. Trabzonspor's home defence has been tight—conceding under 2.5 goals in nine of ten matches—but one goal remains within reach for a side with Hearts' consistency in front of goal. At 1xBet, the Trabzonspor win stands at 1.36, the draw at 5.61, and Heart Of Midlothian win at 8.00.
Odds to watch
The match winner market reflects Trabzonspor's dominance. A home win trades at 1.36 with 1xBet, while a draw sits at 5.61 and an away win at 8.00. The hosts are clear favourites given their form under Reis and their fortress status at Papara Park. Over 2.5 goals is available at standard odds, though Trabzonspor's recent matches have frequently stayed under 3.5 total goals. Heart Of Midlothian's individual total over 0.5 goals carries strong value given their ten-match scoring streak, even if their shot volume in Europe remains modest.
