Analysis

Maccabi Tel Aviv enters the second match with a strong lead of 5:0 after the first game against Sheriff Tiraspol. In their last five matches, they have won four and lost one, scoring 11 goals and only allowing three. Besides their convincing win in the first match, they also defeated H. Beer Sheva 3:1, and in two of their last five games, they kept a clean sheet.

Sheriff Tiraspol has three wins, one draw, and one loss in their last five matches, but their only loss was the heavy 0:5 against Maccabi Tel Aviv. They are currently at the top of their domestic league with 11 points from five games, having three wins, two draws, and a goal difference of 10:4. However, they struggled to put up a serious fight in the first European match.

Even though Maccabi Tel Aviv will play the game at a different stadium and has a significant advantage that might affect their approach, the difference in quality shown in the first match is quite noticeable.

In their last five matches, they have two wins, two draws, and one loss, with at least three goals scored in four of those games. The team has netted 12 goals during this time, including the six goals from the first match.

Atert Bissen on the other hand, has one win, one draw, and three losses in their last five matches, conceding 12 goals. Three of those games saw at least three goals scored, including their 1:2 loss to Klaksvik and the first match against Gyor, which ended with a total of eight goals.

CFR 1907 Cluj enters the second match after a 1:1 draw in the first game against Alashkert. In the domestic league, they are currently in fourth place with three points from two matches, having one win, one loss, and a goal difference of 6:2.

In their last five games, they have two wins, two draws, and one loss. In the previous European round, they eliminated Yelimay Semey after a penalty shootout, as both matches ended in a draw.

The result from the first match leaves everything open, but CFR Cluj now has the advantage of playing at home and comes into the second match after a strong 5:0 victory. Alashkert has shown that they are a tough opponent, but the home team has greater offensive potential.
