Viktoria Plzen vs HJK
Champions League Qualification
Date: Tuesday, 26 July 2022
Kick-off at 18:00 UK/ 19:00 CET
Venue: Doosan Arena.
Viktoria have been on a great streak for quite some time now and they have built a huge momentum. They will have to take on HJK for a second time in order to secure an entry into the next round of the Champions League playoffs.
Viktoria had finished second in the Czech top flight regular season but after that they delivered some exemplary performances, and secured the top-most position in the Championship Group.
They have been scoring goals at a great rate for quite some time now and it also needs to be mentioned that they have been on a good run at home in the last several game weeks.
And most importantly they will be high on confidence after securing a 2-1 win in the first leg and that too on the road. Now all that remains is that they hold on to this aggregate lead in the second leg in front of their home crowd.
Likely HJK will have to go on the offensive right from the get-go. They have to overcome this one-goal deficit and this desperation will likely force them to take risks.
They already have a defense that is not in top-notch form and coupled to this pressure, it seems that they are looking at another loss coming their way this Tuesday.
