Europa League
Pyunik – Sheriff. Prediction and announcement for the Europa League match
On Thursday, August 18, the first play-off match of the Europa League qualifiers will be held at the Vazgen Sargsyan Republic Stadium in Yerevan, Armenia, where local Pyunik will host the Moldovan Sheriff. The starting whistle will sound at 20:00 Kyiv time.
Pyunik
Following the results of last season, the Yerevan team became the champion of Armenia, winning a record 15th title of the best club in the country. Yeghishe Melikyan’s wards in the championship race were only one point ahead of Ağrı-Armenia. Pyunik did not play in European cups for the last 3 years and even managed to return to the Champions League 7 years later.
Ukrainian defender Anton Bratkov won the gold medals of the national championship together with Pyunik, who previously played in Lviv under the leadership of Melikyan. Also, the Armenian club was strengthened this summer by another Ukrainian, Sergey Vakulenko. The former defender of Karpaty has been playing for the aforementioned Ağrı-Armenia for the past two years.
Sheriff
The Moldovan champion achieved a historic feat, playing for the first time in the Champions League group stage history last season, especially by beating Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu. This success was helped by Ukrainian specialist Yuriy Vernydub, who left the post of head coach after the start of the full-scale invasion of Russia to defend his homeland.
Tiraspol club started their European Cup journey from the first qualifying round of the Champions League, where they excluded Bosnian Zrinjski (0:0, 1:0) from the tournament. Slovenian “Maribor” (0:0, 1:0) was passed in the second qualifying round, but there was a relegation from Czech “Victoria Plzen” (1:2, 1:2) in the third elimination. Pernambuco, who has played in all of Lviv’s previous six European cup matches, is on loan for Sherif.
Prediction for confrontation
We believe that Sheriff will win this match. Our bet will be the P2 position on the Parimatch line with a coefficient of 2.49.
Estimated compositions
Pyunik: Buchnev – Gonzalez, Vakulenko, Baranov, Bratkov, Juninho, Sambrano, Harutyunyan, Mladenovic, Jahani, Radeski.
“Sheriff”: Abalora – Crozot, Radelich, Kiki, Guyedes, Badolo, Kiabu, Lushkya, Rashid, Tejan, Pernambuco.

Ukrainian defender Nottingham Forest Alexander Zinchenko He shared his feelings after his team beat Utrecht (2:1) in the main round of the Europa League.
“It’s a great feeling. First of all, I’m back. Secondly, it’s an incredible feeling to win a match. Getting three points today was very important for us. As you can see, it was a difficult match. But at the end of the match, I think we got what we wanted and let’s continue like that.”
“As a defender you always want to keep a clean sheet, but unfortunately we couldn’t do that today. So it’s something we need to work on in the future.”
“This is one of those matches where whoever wins the most challenges in different areas of the field will win the match. Today we won many more goals which helped us a lot in the game. But to be honest, even the opportunities we created, including me, we should have scored and finished this match earlier,” said Zinchenko.
Nottingham Forest is in 11th place in the rankings with 11 points after 6 matches in the Europa League this season.

sports doctor Dmitry Babelyuk He was not happy with the decision made by Sean Dyche, the head coach of English Nottingham, in the match against Dutch Utrecht in the Europa League (2-1).
The Foresters’ coach has given Ukraine national team defender Alexander Zinchenko a place in the starting squad after the player missed nine matches due to injury.
“These old-school coaches never cease to amaze. In 2025, with the advancement of sports science and medicine, I don’t understand how it is possible to release a player from the winger position for a full 90 minutes at the same time after two muscle injuries.
First, Moyes did this to Mikolenko, which led to Vitaly’s relapse. Now Dyche makes the same obvious mistakes.
Understanding that Zinchenko is a player who has regularly suffered from muscle problems in recent seasons; injured twice at Nottingham in the last three months; Having not played for the last six weeks, I cannot imagine how anyone could be so negligent in getting a player into top playing form.
This is not often seen in the new generation of coaches such as Thomas Frank or Enzo Mareschi, but the old ones continue to rely on their own emotions, leaving players in danger of unnecessary relapses.
I hope everything goes well for Sasha and he returns to his best form, but playing 90 minutes at a time after two months of treatment is outright stupidity in modern football at the top level,” Babelyuk raged.
