Drita play host to Antwerp in a match of their second-leg of Europa Conference League Qualification. A tie breaking game could be seen this Thursday as both sides battle it out at Stadiumi Fadil Vokrri-Pristina.

The Belgian side held Drita to a goal-less draw in the first leg played in Bosuilstadion on last Thursday. Antwerp had 28 goal attempts and 4 shots on goal but couldn’t get the ball inside the net. The visitors were defending deep and made it to a 0-0 in the end, to take it back to home.

Drita finished second in the Super League of Kosovo last season, gaining 64 points from 36 games, recording 18 wins and 10 draws. That runner-up achievement gave them this ECL qualifier ticket. The hosts lost 1-0 to Inter Turku in the first leg while they came back by 3-0 at home in the second -leg to advance into this qualifying fixture.

Their most recent results shine a light on the fact that much solidity has been shown by the Drita rearguard. They have kept it tight, resulting in the number of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper over the course of their previous 6 clashes standing at four.

On the other hand, Antwerp were at the 4th spot of the league table at the end of the regular fixtures and they advanced it to the Championship group where they claimed the fourth spot. This is their first ECL qualifying tie and they were unable to get the most out in the first-leg at home.

Mark van Bommel’s Antwerp have managed to stick the ball in the net 5 times in the course of their latest 6 matches. The overall goals that have been scored against them during those same matches adds up to nine.
