Iberia 1999 failed to win the Georgian Super Cup, losing in the final in a penalty shootout to Torpedo Kutaisi. Everyone's attention is focused on the Champions League right now. In the first qualifying round, the red and white overcame the resistance of the Estonian Flora. Then the Georgians made a start on the road, won with a score of 3:2. In the home game, they led 2-0 after the first half, but allowed the Estonians to win back (2-2). As you can see, even in matches against not the strongest opponent, the defense was malfunctioning, we conceded four goals in two games.
Slovan regularly participates in European competitions, has experience of playing in the general stage of the Champions League. The Slovaks entered the new season under the leadership of Yaya Toure, a famous former football player. The squad has been decently updated, with the experienced Martin Trnovsky, Robert Mack and Vladimir Weiss leaving the club. Among the acquisitions, we note goalkeeper Alexander Popovich and defender Samuel Kozlowski. Slovan actively prepared for the start of the Champions League qualification, played five friendly matches, in which he won three, lost one match, and drew one match. In the last sparring match, the Slovaks defeated Cyprus Pathos 3-2.
Iberia 1999 relies on attack in its game, largely due to this, it was possible to pass Flora in the first qualifying round. At the same time, even the Estonians, who are far from the strongest squad, were able to hit the gates of the Georgian club four times. Slovan is a much more experienced opponent, has successfully played friendly matches, under the leadership of Yaya Toure demonstrates a bold game in attack and is even able to achieve victory away, taking advantage of the opponent's problems in defense.
