HJK Preview – Can HJK make it four on trot?
Wednesday’s hosts, HJK, will be seeking a fourth win on the trot in all competitions when they entertain Czech Republic outfit, Plzen, following recent victories against Rigas (home and away) in the previous round of the Champions League qualifiers along with a 3-1 home win over VPS in the domestic Veikkausliiga.
The fact that HJK have won five of their last seven games at home puts them in good stead for the first leg, and if they lose, Koskela’s side will at least have a shot at Europa League qualification.
Plzen Preview – Can Plzen stake claim?
After failing to reach the Conference League group stage last term, Plzen are out to end a run of consecutive second-round eliminations, having reached the Champions League proper three times before.
Plzen will be hoping that they can draw upon past glories in the Champions League but having managed just two wins out of their last 12 outings at this level, the handicap looks the best option for the visitors in this one.
