The UEFA Champions League qualifying match between SSC Farul and Sheriff Tiraspol will take place at Stadionul Central on Wednesday at 11:00 pm IST.
On Wednesday, SSC Farul will strive to gain an advantage in the first leg of their Champions League first-round qualifying match against Sheriff Tiraspol. The game will take place at Stadionul Central, featuring Romania’s champions against the champions of Moldova’s league.
Farul has achieved a notable milestone by reaching the Champions League qualifying rounds for the second time in their history, following their triumph as winners of the Romanian Liga 1 last season. Under the leadership of the legendary former footballer Gheorghe Hagi, Farul clinched their inaugural championship in impressive fashion. In their previous Champions League qualification round in 2017, Farul experienced a 4-1 aggregate defeat to APOEL in the third round of qualifying.
On the contrary, Sheriff has made a notable appearance in the Champions League group stage once, achieving a remarkable victory against Real Madrid two years ago. With their eighth consecutive Moldovan National Division title in hand from the previous season, Bordin and his players carry a sense of confidence, relying on their recent European experience to overcome the challenge posed by Farul in the initial qualifying round.
SSC Farul probable starting lineup: Aioani, Kiki, Queiros, Boli, Borza, Vina, Nedelcu, Artean, Mazilu, Alibec, Sali
Sheriff Tiraspol probable starting lineup: Koval, Tovar, Garananga, Radeljic, Zohouri, Badolo, Kyabou, Talal, Luvannor, Ricardinho, Yansane
