The opportunity to keep playing European football next year is up for grabs for the two teams, but Sheriff hold a strong advantage. The Moldovan champions' 3-0 away win in the first leg means they only need to avoid losing by a three-goal margin to secure third spot.

This leaves Omonia with a mountain to climb. However, their victory over Anorthosis halted a six-game losing run which saw them part ways with former manager Neil Lennon.
