Preview

Match preview

Pafos host Dinamo Tirana in the UEFA Europa Conference League following a 1-1 draw in the first leg between the sides on August 20. The Cypriot hosts secured a crucial away goal and will look to capitalize on their strong home form, having earned a 2-0 victory over HNK Hajduk Split and a high-scoring 3-3 draw against Red Bull Salzburg in recent home fixtures.

Dinamo Tirana enter the tie seeking consistency on the road after a mixed continental campaign. The Albanian side suffered a 1-0 defeat away at Auda earlier in qualification before rebounding at home, but they come into this second leg off the back of a domestic 1-0 home loss to Vora.

With Pafos proving difficult to beat at home and Dinamo Tirana showing vulnerability away from home in previous rounds, the host side holds the structural advantage in controlling the tempo of this contest.
