In their last match, the team managed to beat Hibernians with a score of 1:2.
Petrocube
For a long time, Petrocube has been a stable winner of the Moldovan championship and a representative of its country in European competitions, but it does not work out to catch up with Sheriff in any way. It was the same last year, the team took second place with a gap of six points. A modest budget does not allow the team to invite foreign players, so they have to play only with local players whose level is not enough. Petrocube played its last match back in May, beating Zimbra 0:3 on the road.
