18:00
Prediction: 1-1
Anderlecht
All eyes will be on Stadionul Zimbru when Sheriff Tiraspol and Anderlecht lock horns in the Conference League third qualifying round, return leg. After suffering a 3-0 defeat in Belgium, Sheriff must secure a convincing victory in the return leg to reach the final qualifying round, but that is easier said than done. The good news for the host is that talented Nigeria forward Elijah Odede has overcome his minor injury.
The Jupiler League outfit, on the other hand, are with one foot in the playoffs, but boss Besnik Hasi must warn his men against complacency. Anyhow, there is a big value in betting on under 2.5 goals as Anderlecht are likely to adopt a defence-minded approach in Thursday’s clash. Defender Killian Sardella continues to miss out with a hamstring problem for the visiting team, while Tristan Degreef should be recalled to the starting XI after coming as a substitute in a 3-2 loss to Waregem.

Highlighted Team (Sheriff Tiraspol):
Sheriff Tiraspol or simply Sheriff are the most successful Moldavian club. The club was founded in 1997 four years later (2000/2001) they won their first Moldovan National Division trophy. Over the years Sheriff Tiraspol have established themselves as the dominant force in the Moldovan football and you should that they won their 15th domestic trophy in the 2016/2017 season.
Sheriff were level on points with Dacia Chisinau, but thanks to a better goal difference Roberto Bordin’s men won the national championship. The Moldovan champions wear yellow shirts and yellow shorts when playing at home, whilst the colour of their away kits is black.
