Klaksvik take on the visitors Sheriff Tiraspol in the first leg of UEFA Europa League qualification finals. The match will be played on Thursday, August 24th at Tórsvøllur (Torshavn).
KI Klaksvik have already become a true sensation. The blue and white team will definitely play in the group stage of European cups, so this year is truly considered a breakthrough for them. As the undeniable flagship of Faroese football (winning all 16 of the current country's championship matches after a couple of previous titles), they didn't achieve much on the international stage before. However, in the Champions League, they overcame Ferencvaros and Hecken (although it was through a penalty shootout). They also won against Molde at home, with a score of 2-1. The Norwegians quickly took the lead at home, but initially, that was all they could manage, leading to extra time. However, on the 112th minute, Linnes scored a decisive goal against Magni Hoseth's team. As a result, their Champions League journey concluded, but they could still make it to the Europa League.

Sheriff this summer have only been weaker than one opponent so far. The yellow and black team, on one hand, failed to replicate their achievement from 2021, when they made their debut in the Champions League group stage under Vernydub. Last summer, the Moldovan flagship couldn't pass the qualification stage. Even now, they struggled and only managed to advance in extra time against Farul from neighboring Romania. They put up a fight against Maccabi but ultimately lost in extra time in Haifa. Moving to the Europa League, the club from Tiraspol vented their frustration on neighboring BATE, defeating the Belarusians 5-1. There were chances to win in Hungary too, but the buns managed to salvage a draw with a 2-2 result. However, this probably didn't upset Lovagnnor and company.
This will be the first encounter between the Faroe Islanders and the Moldovans. The Wasps are quite decent, and they are the favorites here. However, this is the first match of the decisive round of qualification, so we are betting on under 2.5 goals.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
