The UEFA Conference League qualifier match between Sheriff vs BATE Borisov will take place on Thursday at 10:30 pm IST.
Sheriff Tiraspol and BATE Borisov lock horns at the Bolshaya Sportivnaya Arena in the first leg of the Europa League third qualifying round on Thursday. The Moldovan outfit is currently on a run of three consecutive home wins across all competitions. Tiraspol will look to continue in the same breath in their European quest as well. Sheriff Tiraspol kicked off the new Moldovan Super Liga campaign last Sunday when they picked up a 1-0 victory over Petrocub Hincesti at the Stadionul Municipal Hincesti.
Prior to that, Roberto Bordin’s men were dumped out of the Champions League qualifiers courtesy of a 4-2 aggregate defeat against Maccabi Haifa. After two successive games on the road, Sheriff now return home. They are on a three-match winning streak. Sheriff has scored eight goals and kept three clean sheets since May’s goalless draw with Zimbru Chisinau.
Elsewhere, BATE Borisov’s dreams of securing Champions League football came to an end at the hands of Aris Limassol as they were thrashed 11-5 on aggregate by the Cyprus-based outfit. Kirill Alshevskiy’s men returned home one week later where their poor run of form continued. Borisove was beaten 5-3 in the return leg. BATE Borisov will be looking to kick off their Europa League qualifiers on the right foot to keep their hopes of competing in the European tournament alive. They have managed just one win in their last four matches while losing twice and claiming one draw in that time.
