On the other hand, Sheriff Tiraspol made waves last season in the UCL after they defeated the eventual champions at home.
They showed they could go shoulder-to-shoulder against any team in Europe, but this season hasn’t gone to plan. They’ve struggled for form and only won a few games.
Tiraspol would need to beat Manchester United and Omonia Nicosia to keep their hopes alive. Therefore, this game is a make-it-or-break-it tie.
