Backing a draw
Zrinjski Mostar have been a difficult team to beat; they have no losses in their last 25 matches in all competitions, with 20 wins and five draws. It's worth noting that Zrinjski have eight wins in their last 10 games away from home, with two draws. Similarly, Sheriff Tiraspol have not lost a lot of games recently; they are unbeaten in their last 11 matches, with eight wins and three draws. It's worth mentioning that these sides faced off last week, and they played out a goalless draw. With this in mind, we are making the prediction that this match will go into extra time.
Don't expect the goals to flow
To be fair, these teams have scored goals consistently over the course of their respective campaigns; however, they've also been very solid defensively. It's worth noting that Sheriff Tiraspol did not concede a single goal in their last three games; they allowed just one goal in their last five games. In like manner, Zrinjski kept three clean sheets in their last four games. We've mentioned that the reverse fixture of this tie ended goalless; considering Sheriff Tiraspol's last four games went below the 2.5 goal margin, this will likely be a low-scoring game.
