Sheriff Preview – Can Sheriff secure vital win?
Sheriff may feel they have done half of the hard work already in this 2nd qualifying round despite failing to breach Maribor’s stubborn defence with last week’s 0-0 draw in the 1st leg but they now return to home soil for Tuesday night’s decider.
Overall results though have been encouraging for Sheriff as the hosts have put together a 14-match unbeaten run in all competitions while also winning their last four home games on the trot. The bigger picture shows Sheriff have won nine of their last 10 home matches.
Maribor Preview – Can Maribor strike?
Maribor set the record straight on the weekend with a 3-2 home win over Gorica in the Slovenian top flight but this may well be scant reward after being held to a 0-0 draw at home by Sheriff in last week’s 1st leg.
Maribor now have to travel to Moldova for this crucial 2nd leg having registered just two wins from their previous nine matches overall while also winning just twice in their last eight outings on the road at Champions League level.
