The first of two encounters in the Champions League 2nd Qualifying Round, as the hometeam Alashkert will try to edge Sheriff in their own ballpark.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Sheriff have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
