Sheriff won the title in Moldova after beating Dacia in golden match, 1-0 as both teams had the same 65 points after 27 matches. The title was gained mainly due to impressive finishing part of the season when Sheriff took nine wins and one draw in 10 matches. Moldavian champions played only five matches on the road in 2016, winning three, losing one and drawing one. Today’s visitors avoided sparring matches outside of Moldova this summer.
The opponents haven’t met one another before. Considering the level of their domestic competitions and home field advantage we can except Hapoel to prevail in the match and take win in the first leg at own turf.
Prediction for the match: Hapoel Beer Sheva to win.
