Zimbru

The bronze medalist of the Moldovan championship started its European Cup journey with the first round of the Conference League qualification. Zimbru beat La Fiorita from San Marino - 1:1 away, 1:0 at home. In the second round, we can say that the team was unlucky with the draw. After all, Fenerbahce is on a completely different level. The final 0:5 reflected this difference in class.

Fenerbahce

Before the start of the Conference League, the Istanbulians took part in the PARI Premier Cup friendly tournament in St. Petersburg. There, Fenerbahce lost to Red Star (1:3), drew with Zenit (0:0, penalty shootout loss), and beat Neftchi (1:0). Matches with strong opponents allowed to prepare for the first official game in the season qualitatively. Ferdi Kadioglu, Ryan Kent, Edin Dzeko, Sebastian Szymanski, and Joshua King scored for Fenerbahce in the home game against Zimbru (5:0).

Expert Betting Tips

Fenerbahce solved the problem of reaching the next round by winning 5:0 in the first game. So it's unlikely that the Istanbul side will go hard in the return leg, which is also an away game. Fener, of course, can still win, but there are big doubts about a thumping victory for the Istanbulians. We bet on Zimbru with a plus handicap and expect not the most productive game, considering the Moldovan team's poor statistics and Fenerbahçe's lack of motivation.
