Prishtina coach Arsim Thaqi has described their opponents in the first qualifying round of the Europa League as strong. However, he is optimistic that they can make it through the first qualifying round of the second most important UEFA competition. Prishtina will face the well-known Moldovan team, Sheriff Tiraspol, in the first qualifying round of the Europa League.
"We are dealing with a strong opponent. We are lucky to have the first game as a guest. A positive result in that match means a lot, and then in the return match with the support of 'Plisa', who are our 12th player, we will achieve our goal that we have," Thaqi said for the Prishtina club's website.
Prishtina is the winner of the Kosovo Cup. Prishtina returns to European competitions after four years. Prishtina is preparing in Turkey for the European competitions.
