Linfield are yet to start their defence of the NIFL Premiership title, but they did win both of their competitive home fixtures in the Champions League qualifiers last month, keeping a clean sheet on both occasions and will fancy carrying on Thursday.

Meanwhile, Zurich already began their defence of the Swiss top flight title, but it has been a disappoint start ast5 they have won none of their opening three matches, picking one draw while suffering two defeats in the process.

They have now failed to win any of their last six matches across all competitions, and have lost each of their last four away matches in row. They therefore have an awful lot to work on before the Thursday clash.
