Sheriff Tiraspol will on Tuesday play host to Farul Constanta in the second leg of their Champions League first-round qualifier. Constanta are ahead 1-0 on aggregate having won the first leg meeting a week ago. Sheriff are regulars in this competition and will hope to show their pedigree in this match. Roberto Bordin’s charges need to win by two clear goals to be assured of progressing to the next stage. Before the first leg loss, Sheriff had not lost in 13 matches and had won 10 times. The majority of those victories, six, had come at home. Sheriff have conceded once in their last six fixtures and if they are to win, defence will play a key role here.

Farul Constanta are playing in the Champions League for the first time; so far so good for the Romanian side. Constanta were crowned Romanian champions for the first time last season and ended CFR Cluj’s five-season run as champions. Now they will hope to become the latest Romanian side to reach the group stage of Europe’s premier club competition. Gheorghe Hagi’s men rode on the momentum from the first leg to defeat Hermannstadt 1-0 away from home in the league. After starting the season with a 1-0 loss to Sepsi in the Supercup, Constanta have now won their last two fixtures.
