Prediction: 0-2
Red Bull Salzburg
As expected, Salzburg rolled over Shkendija 3-0 in the first leg of the Champions League third qualifying round. The Red Bulls proved their worth in front of home fans and they are now on a quest to defend their big lead. Salzburg are on a ten-game winning run ahead of the trip to Macedonia and we predict that the Austrian champions are going to give fans yet another reason for celebration. Shkendija, on the other hand, have little to play for in the return leg and seeing that they are low on confidence ahead of Tuesday’s football match, away win should be considered. Moanes Dabour scored a brace in the first leg and all eyes will be on the Israel international when the two teams face each other at Telekom Arena in Skopje. It has to be noted, though, that the visitors will be without suspended midfielder Zlatko Junuzovic in the return leg.
Highlighted Player (Hee-Chan Hwang):
Hwang Hee-Chan is a product of Pohang Steelers football academy. The Korean attacker, who was born in Chuncheon on January 26, 1996, started his senior career at FC Liefering of Austria and he scored 13 goals in 31 appearances for the club. The 177-cm tall striker currently plays for Red Bull Salzburg and you should bear in mind that he netted 12 goals for the club in the 2016/2017 season.
Hwang Hee-Chan won his second Austrian Bundesliga title with Salzburg in the 2016/2017 season, but the Red Bulls eventually failed to make it to the Champions League group stages. The Salzburg footballer made his South Korea debut in a 2-0 win over Canada on November 11, 2016.
Hee-Chan played regularly for the Korea national football team in the 2018 World Cup qualifiers and he scored one goal in the process. The Koreans eventually booked their place at the showpiece tournament in Russia, meaning that the Salzburg attacker will have a chance to prove his worth on the big stage.
