Partizan Belgrade News and Form
The Serbians hold a 1-0 lead in the tie after their trip to Wales. Partizan came up against some well-organised and stiff defence by Connah’s Quay. In last season’s Europa League qualifiers, Partizan made the playoff round after having started in the first qualifying round. They lost just the one game in that run of fixutres, a telling 3-0 defeat at Besiktas in the playoff round. That was what did them in at the end.
Just the season before that they were in the group stage of the competition and made it through to the round of 32. So that’s how well Connah’s Quay did in the first leg. Partizan will be happy with an away goal, a clean sheet and home advantage now though. The Serbians are on a seven-match undefeated streak of form at home in Europe, winning five of those. They hold clear favouritism in this tie.

Connah’s Quay News and Form
Will Connah’s Quay be able to do what they did in the last round? Against Kilmarnock, in the first qualifying round the Nomads were trailing by one goal after a 2-1 defeat at home. So they were pretty much written off for their trip to Scotland in the second leg. But in a surprising twist, the longer that the second leg at McDiarmid Park went on, the better Connah’s Quay got. They produced a 2-0 win to haul themselves through to the second qualifying round.
Their success over Kilmarnock was just their second success in a UEFA tie, from five played. The other time that they got one was in their first-ever European season in 2016. That was also in the Europa League when they managed to get to the second round. Connah’s Quay are W2 L3 in their five previous road games in European action. Both of their away wins were with a clean sheet, each of their three defeats they failed to score in.

Partizan Belgrade v Connah’s Quay Predictions
Partizan Belgrade to wins: We think that this is going to be the last that we see of Connah’s Quay in the Europa League qualifiers this season. They pulled off that heroic win at Kilmarnock in the last round, but this looks to be a much tougher task in Belgrade. Home win to nil.
