Sheriff will be aiming to kickstart their Europa League qualifying campaign in style when they host Zira to their Sheriff Arena on Thursday afternoon. The Moldovan champions have been participating in the elite competition for years, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. A man to watch in the home team will be pacey winger Papa Ndiaga Yade, who joined the club from Metz earlier this summer.

Zira, on the other hand, aim to make amends for the unsuccessful 2023/2024 Europa League campaign, but they will have a mountain to climb against Sheriff, who are a very experienced side. You should bear in mind that Zira suffered a 2-1 loss to Qarabag in their last competitive match. One of the men to keep an eye on in the visiting team will be Guinea international Salifou Soumah, who played for Le Havre in the past.
