Maribor Preview – Can Maribor make it count?
After sealing the Slovenian league title at the end of last season, Maribor were expected to make a better start to their pre-season but the hosts have lost three of their last four games overall which brings a level of uncertainty into this upcoming 1st leg clash.
However, Maribor possess a pretty good pedigree in Champions League football in terms of experience and as such, the hosts have never failed to progress past at least the 1st round qualifying round, so they look set for further success here.
Shakhtyor Soligorsk Preview – Can Shakhtyor produce a better showing?
Despite also winning their domestic top flight league title at the end of last season’s Belarus Premier League campaign which saw Shakhtyor oust BATE in the pecking order, the visitors have struggled in their previous limited exposure to the Champions League competition.
Each of Shakhtyor’s last four ties have resulted in 1-0 defeats for the visitors as they’ve been beaten in previous home and away legs against Bosnia-Herzegovina side, Siroki Brijeg, and Bulgarian outfit, Ludogorets, so this could be another tough outing for Shakhtyor.
