FC Noah vs Zimbru
📖 The Preview
Right, so this is finely poised after a 1-1 draw in the first leg, meaning whoever scores first here is in a brilliant position. FC Noah have the slight edge at home, and with both sides looking pretty even on recent form, it's the kind of tight European knockout night where chances are few and concentration is everything. Zimbru will fancy themselves, but Noah edging it 1-0 makes sense here. One goal, backs against the wall, job done. Low-scoring and nervy, exactly what these ties tend to produce.
