Rabotnicki and Torpedo BelAZ Zhodino will trade tackles in the second leg of their UEFA Conference League first-round qualifier on Thursday (July 17th). The game will be played at National Arena Toshe Proeski.
The visitors hold a three-goal advantage in the tie, having claimed a 3-0 victory in the first leg last week. They were the designated hosts in the game but it had to be played in Hungary.

Both sides will resume their quest to advance to the next round of the qualifiers where Maccabi Haifa await the winner of this tie.

Rabotnicki vs Torpedo BelAZ Prediction
Rabotnicki are competing in the UEFA Conference League for the first time in their history. They have a three-goal deficit to overcome and this need for goals could leave them open at the back and susceptible to being caught out.
Torpedo BelAZ Zhodino, for their part, are flying high and are on a fine run of form. They hold a comfortable advantage and will be keen to build on this. Furthermore, they have the advantage of having been in competitive action over the last few months compared to their hosts, whose domestic season ended over two months ago. Their games tend to come alive in the second half, while all 17 of their games to produce at least a goal this season have had more second-half goals than first.
The two sides should cancel each other out in a high-scoring stalemate.
