Shkendija vs TNS

Shkendija host TNS in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League qualifier, with the tie still in the balance after a 0-0 draw in the first meeting.

The North Macedonians will be counting on a solid home form, having earned some key results in front of their fans lately. They should have the upper hand over the visitors, who have found things difficult on their recent travels.

Shkendija News

Shkendija held their own for much of the first leg and will take the positives from that 0-0 draw in Wales. They had only two attempts on target and had to ride their luck a few times.

That result maintains a solid run of form for Shkendija, who are unbeaten in eight of their last 10 matches across all competitions. Jeton Bekjiri's team have also been solid at home lately and are unbeaten in eight of their last 10 matches in front of their fans.

Shkendija will come into this clash looking to claim the advantage and have scored in their last 10 matches across all competitions, with seven fixtures in this run producing over 2.5 goals. However, they are without a clean sheet in seven of the last nine fixtures in front of their fans.

TNS News

TNS will be disappointed not to have claimed the upper hand in the first meeting having looked the better side for much of the contest. They dominated the possession and had several chances to score but could not find the breakthrough.

While the performance was solid, the result means TBS are now winless in their last four matches. They are also winless in four of their last five away matches, suffering two defeats in that run.

TNS will be keen to make up for their profligacy in the first leg and have scored in eight of their last 10 away matches. However, they are without a clean sheet in seven of their last 10 matches across all competitions while six of those fixtures have produced over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

Before last week's 0-0 draw, both teams met during the 2018 Champions League qualifiers. Shkendija claimed a 5-0 home victory before TNS triumphed 4-0 at home in the second leg.

Verdict

Shkendija Tetovo v The New Saints

With the tie still perfectly in the balance, Shkendija and TNS will be fired up to claim the upper hand on Tuesday. Both teams have quality going forward and could be backed to score, while over 2.5 goals could also be expected, with the hosts seeing a similar outcome in seven of their last 10 home matches.

Shkendija claimed the win in the last home meeting with TNS and given their recent record in front of their fans, should come out on top once again.
