Linfield Preview – Can Linfield overturn deficit?
Linfield’s hopes of progressing to the 2nd qualifying round of this season’s Champions League took a serious blow after last week’s 1-0 loss away to The New Saints in Oswestry, and although they hold home advantage on Wednesday night, it’s now four Champions League ties that the hosts have lost on the trot.
Indeed, Linfield have managed to win just two of their last 14 ties at home in this competition so they look to have their work cut out against their Welsh counterparts who will be desperate to hang onto their 1-0 lead in this return leg.
The New Saints Preview – Can TNS hold on?
In three of the last four years, the Welsh champions have reached the 3rd qualifying round of either the Europa League or Europa Conference League, so the visitors possess a useful pedigree on the European stage and will be relying upon previous experience at this level to see them through this 2nd leg tie.
The Welsh visitors have also lost just one of their last 11 matches in all competitions so they look the better equipped to see out this return leg and progress through to the next qualifying round of this competition.
