Prediction: 2-0
Sheriff Tiraspol
Nice play host to Sheriff Tiraspol at their Allianz Riviera in the first leg of the Conference League, second leg. Les Aiglons won the first leg thanks to Ayoub Amraoui’s goal, and, as a result, they are on the verge of booking their place in the quarter-finals. Atal has joined the likes of Diop, Mendy, Pepe, and Bryan in the recovery room, while Wales star Aaron Ramsey has overcome his injury.
The Moldovans, on the other hand, face an uphill task in Thursday’s clash as Nice have turned their Allianz Riviera into a real fortress. Since Sheriff are not regarded as good travellers, anything but a routine home win would be a major surprise. Burkina Faso international Abou Ouattara continues to miss out with injury, speaking of the visiting team. A man to keep an eye on in the away team will be Ouattara’s compatriot.
