On Thursday, August 25, the second leg of the UEFA Europa League qualifying round will be played at the Zimbru stadium in Chisinau, where the Sheriff of Moldova and Pyunik from Armenia will play. Swedish referee Andreas Ekberg from Malmö will blow the whistle at 20:00 Kyiv time.

Sheriff

Moldovan “Sheriff”, led by Ukrainian expert Yuriy Vernidub, was the main sensation of the group stage of the UEFA Champions League last season, but in the new football year neither our compatriot as head coach, nor actually participation in the main match Club tournament of the Old World, now the team Stepan Thomas will definitely not be. The sheriff transferred this right to the Czech Victoria Pilsen, who on the eve finally secured the right to participate in the main draw of the competition, but at the same time, Moldovans, from the second point of view, have not yet guaranteed themselves anything. strongest tournament

Sheriff’s local championship has already gained some momentum, but even after coming out of a four-meeting streak undefeated, Thomas’ team can’t get enough confidence in their own abilities. The first match ended in a goalless draw (0:0), which is a sufficient result as the flight to Armenia still takes a lot of energy. On the other hand, the return to their homeland, the away game with “Balti” (3:0) and another trip to the Romanian capital – less than a week at the beginning of the season is not too much of a burden for the players? season? However, ambitions no longer allow flying to the Conferences League.

Pyunik

The current champions of Armenia are off to a nasty start to the new season. Eghishe Melikyan, well-known to Ukrainian fans, is currently on the verge of being fired, with too many questions being asked given his team’s results in recent games and the special status Pyunik enjoys at home. Among other things, four Ukrainians simultaneously play in the Armenian club: defenders Sergey Vakulenko, Anton Bratkov and Alan Ayussi, as well as midfielder Roman Karasyuk. Frankly, we would love to see them play against higher-tier opponents than the Conference League can provide in the group stage.

Pyunik was unable to use the field in his first game against Sheriff or in the championship game against Van (0:1) and he is now in second place after three rounds played. The second leg match against Crvena Zvezda in the third round of the Champions League qualifiers (0:3) also did not yield an acceptable result, so the Yerevan team finished the tournament in a lower place. With the guest success, this team is also pretty tight – almost a month has passed since the victory over Dudelange (4: 1), and in Belgrade, Melikyan’s players were completely defeated (0: 5). Let’s add here the penultimate place in the championship, and it turns out that Pyunik should not think about European competitions at all.

Estimated compositions

“Sheriff”: Maid – Kposo, Eron, Kiki, Guedes – Diop, Kiabu, Badolo – Akanbi, Teyan, Ouattara.

Pyunik: Yurchenko – Harutyunyan, Dashyan, Bratkov, Kochuk – Yurichich, Radeski, Vakulenko – Kovalenko, Gonzalez, Juninho.

Prediction for confrontation

We believe that in the next match, the hosts will decide the outcome of the duel in their favor. Our bet will be position – Handicap. Sheriff (-1) with a coefficient of 1.94 on the Parimatch line.

Vasily Kobin could go to Dnepr and play in the Europa League final

football journalist Igor Tsyganyk He told the details of the long-standing transfer story regarding the possible transfer of Vyacheslav Kobin to Dnepr.

According to him, when Dnipro club had to choose between Artem Fedetsky and Vyacheslav Kobin, Kobin was the first choice to strengthen the squad.

Tsyganyk stated that the football player could really be transferred to Dnieper and noted that they made him an offer in the first place. According to the journalist, in the event of such a transfer, Kobin could even play in the 2015 Europa League final, but ultimately the transfer did not take place.

The journalist emphasized that the failure of the transition was not related to financial conditions. According to his information, salaries in Shakhtar and Dnepr were approximately the same. The reasons why the transfer did not take place lie on a different level, but the details of this situation are not reliably known.

According to Tsyganik, Dnepr considered Kobin as a priority option, but the transition was never implemented. Artem Fedetsky played for Dnepr from 2012 to 2016. In the 2014/15 Europa League final, Dnepr lost to the Spanish team Sevilla (2:3).
