HB Torshavn Preview – Can Torshavn put up fight?
HB Torshavn face a mountain to climb against Israeli opponents, Maccabi Haifa, following last week’s 7-2 thrashing in the 1st leg of this 3rd qualifying round tie in the Europa Conference League and although they hold home advantage here, they look well out of their depth.
HB Torshavn strung together four wins on the trot in between European losses to Inter Club in the preliminary round of the Champions League and the 7-2 loss to Maccabi Haifa, with domestic wins against B68 and 07 Vestur, along with a 6-0 aggregate win agains Buducnost in the previous round of the Europa Conference League.
However, Torshavn looked sadly ill-equipped to deal with Maccabi Haifa in the 1st leg and this return leg could also prove to be a tough night at the office for the Faroe Islands outfit.
Maccabi Haifa Preview – Can Maccabi Haifa win five on trot?
Although Maccabi Haifa were handed an early exit from the qualifying rounds of the Champions League after a 3-1 loss on aggregate to Kazakhstan side, Kairat Almaty, the Israeli side have bounced back in subsequent matches, winning their last four games on the trot.
A 7-2 win on aggregate over Dinamo Tbilisi was followed by a domestic Super Cup 2-0 win against Maccabi Tel Aviv and their goalscoring exploits continued with last week’s demolition of HB Torshavn with a 7-2 win in the 1st leg.
The bigger picture shows that Maccabi Haifa have lost just one of their last nine matches in all competitions, so the visitors will be in confident mood here.
