Sheriff Tiraspol aim to see off the challenge from Teuta Durres to book their berth in the second round of qualifying for the Champions League. During the first leg, Moldovan champions Sheriff Tiraspol secured a healthy 4-0 advantage away from home.

Star forward Henrique Luvannor netted a brace for Sheriff Tiraspol before goals from Adama Traore and Frank Castaneda completed the rout in the second half. Albanian champions Teuta Durres now have a mountain to climb in the upcoming return leg and are unlikely to produce a remarkable turnaround in the tie.

Although Sheriff Tiraspol began their title defense in the Moldovan National Division with defeat to FC Balti, the win over Teuta Durres has probably got them running. The Moldovan outfit will be keen to build on the triumph and should be brimming with confidence ahead of this fixture.

Understandably, Teuta Durres will feel they do not have any realistic chance of clawing their way back into the game. However, stranger things have happened in football and that should be enough motivation for them to fight tooth and nail during the return leg.
