Prediction: 3-0
Sutjeska
Ludogorets will look to move one step closer to booking their place in the Champions League second qualifying round when they face Sutjeska at Huvepharma Arena. Ludogorets missed out on a spot in the Champions League group stages last term, and, no doubt, they are eager to make amends for the unsuccessful qualifying campaign.
The Bulgarians are a real force to be reckoned with at home, and, one thing is for sure, they will give 100% to get their job done in the first leg. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Bulgaria international Kiril Despodov, who is likely to prove a handful for the opposition back-line. Sutjeska, on the other hand, have a very poor record in the Champions League qualifiers (0-3-7), which is yet another reason why home win should be considered. One of the men to watch in the away team will be Dutch attacker Tyrone Ryan Conraad.
