FC Zurich is playing against NK Maribor at home in first match in 3rd round of qualifications for UEFA Champions League (Wednesday, 29/07/09 17:00). The match will be played on Letzigrund stadium.

 NK Maribor will play against Swiss champions FC Zurich in 3rd round of qualifications. Maribor is aware that the favorite on this match is FC Zurich. They have a really good players. Swiss champions insist with combinatorial game and want to play. Their great strength are four quality offensive players. If Maribor would repeat the opening minutes from match against Wit in Ljudski vrt, and then defend themselves, it would be great. But the Zurich team is better than the Georgians, which has shown great quality in the possession of the ball. The hosts will miss the best scorer. Almen Abdi, who has reached 19 goals in last championship is injured, but they have enough quality players to replace him. Four of the most aggressive players in formation 4-2-3-1 are moving fast and penetrative. As a team they play compact and sophisticated, it is apparent that they have the experience and potential. I think that despite all the NK Maribor is able to surprise on the first game and retain all the attacks from favourites from Zurich.

 My tip is X

Highest odd is on bet365 4,00
