Balzan welcomes Domzal to the Centenary Stadium for the first round of qualifying for the Europa League on Tuesday (18 July).
The hosts have the advantage going into the clash, having secured a comfortable 4-1 victory in the first leg in Slovenia last week. Four players got a score sheet for the Maltese national team with a score that decided the predictions. Nicolas Zergal came off the bench to put the icing on the cake in the fourth minute of stoppage time.
The winner of this tie faces either Vaduz or Neman Groszno in the second qualifying round.

Balzan vs Domzel expectation
Balzan produced arguably the greatest performance in their history to score a shock victory in the first leg. The win gives them three goals they can build on as they seek to advance to the next round of the playoffs.
Domzal failed to turn up for the first leg, despite having a home advantage. They would have to up the ante exponentially if they were to have any hope of overturning their deficit.
Balzan’s weaknesses in defense could work in favor of the visitors, but Domzal’s need for goals could also leave them vulnerable to exploitation in defence. The two sides can cancel each other out in a high-score draw.
prediction: Balzan 1-1 Domzel
