Both Radnicki and Gzira will be fighting for a place in the Conference League third qualifying round when they square off at Gradski Stadion in their second qualifying round tie second leg on Thursday.
The two played out a 2-2 draw in the first leg last week, with Samurai netting a brace for Gzira, while Stulic and Gakou scored for Radnicki. Now the tie is delicately poised and any win for either side will see them go through to the playoff round.
Both sides have not been in action since the first leg and will both be well rested ahead of the second leg. However, the hosts will fancy their chances as they boast a five-match unbeaten run at Gradski Stadion winning three and drawing two in the process.
The home advantage e will be crucial for Radnicki in this fixture, nut their opponents should be completely written off as they are in a good form having gone unbeaten in their last five matches, claiming three victories and two draws in the run.
Gzira are also in a good away form having only lost one of their last five on the road matches while winning all the other four.
Therefore the two are evenly matched and we expect another closely fought encounter considering what is at stake in the clash.
Radnicki vs Gzira head to head
Both sides have met in three encounters since 2018 with Radnicki claiming two victories and there have been one draw. Gzira are still to win.
