Maccabi Tel Aviv were overwhelming favourites to get through when the draw was made and that’s exactly how the first leg played out.

A week ago at Dalğa Arena, Gabi Kanichowsky broke the deadlock early, before Đorđe Jovanović bagged a quick-fire brace.

Thus, the Israeli side left Baku, almost, being able to start planning for the next round of qualification.

In their rich history, the Yellows have qualified for two Champions League and five Europa League group phases.

Thus, Maccabi Tel Aviv are very much targeting another elongated continental campaign.

Zira meanwhile have only ever competed in UEFA competition once before.

The Azerbaijani club defeated FC Déifferdeng on debut in 2017 before immediately being ousted by Astra Giurgiu.

This time, barring a remarkable turnaround, the Eagles will fall at the first hurdle.

Maccabi Tel Aviv can surely look forward to a Europa Conference League third qualifying round clash with Aris Thessaloniki; they hammered Gomel 5-1 in their first leg.
