Sheriff Tiraspol and Servette gear up for a crucial encounter on Oct 26, 2023, at 8 pm UK time at Bolshaya Sportivnaya Arena. Both teams are desperately seeking their first win in the Europa League’s Group G. As they lock horns for the first time in UEFA competition, stakes are high with neither side having secured a win yet in the group stage.

Analysis:

Sheriff Tiraspol’s recent performance in the Europa League has been less than stellar. A heart-wrenching 6-0 defeat to Slavia Prague led to the sacking of their coach, Roberto Bordin. Following this, their subsequent loss to Roma accentuated their challenges in the tournament. Once a formidable team that defeated the likes of Real Madrid, Sheriff’s recent European track record paints a different picture. Their focus might now shift to securing the third position in the group, a feat they achieved last season. While their domestic performance remains commendable, new coach Roman Pylypchuk has his task cut out in the European arena.

On the flip side, Servette hasn’t had a bright start either, with two opening losses and a cumulative scoreline of 6-0 against them. Although this is their debut in the group stage, they are determined to turn the tide in Tiraspol. Their recent domestic performance has shown signs of resurgence with three consecutive victories in the Swiss Super League. Rene Weiler’s men have shown grit and determination, and their recent victory over Basel is testament to their potential.
