A new season of the UEFA Champions League is underway, with the preliminary round matches set for play on 22nd and 25th June. Among the opening fixtures, HB Torshavn of Faroe Islands, will be up against Inter Club d’Escalades of Andorra. These two sides are enjoying great forms in their domestic leagues but Champions League football hasn’t produced the best runs for them. HB Torshavn are coming from a comfortable win domestically, having beaten TB Tvoroyri 6-0 with Mikkel Dalh scoring a hat trick. The three goals mean he has now scored five in the last four matches and he will definitely be the man to watch here. The win was HB Torshavn’s third in five matches and this result, a fourth clean sheet in five. While the 6-0 win was the first time in five matches that they managed more than a goal, HB Torshavn have scored two or more in six of their last 10 matches. They’ve failed to score in just one of the 10 matches and have suffered one defeat in the 10 matches. The last time HB Torshavn played a Champions League game was in 2019; between now and 2014, they’ve played just six Champions League matches.

Inter Club, on the other hand, are coming from a 1-0 loss in the Andorran league at the hands of Sant Julia. It was a defeat that brought to an end a five-match unbeaten run, which had four wins therein. It also ended a run of two consecutive clean sheets and was as well a first away loss in seven matches. This is going to be only the second time Inter Club get to play a Champions League game; they had the first in August of 2020, and lost 2-1 to Kosovo side, Drita. Experienced Spanish forward Genis Soldevilla will be their main man going to this game. He has scored five goals in the team’s last five matches while Marc Pujol has also slotted in well, with three goals in the five matches. They’ve failed to score in just one of their last seven matches, but only managed two clean sheets in the run.
