Linfield expects...
The Europa League second qualifying round draw has been exceptionally kind. And should the Blues as expected, defeat the Maltese minnows, then there could be further good fortune in tomorrow morning’s third qualifying round draw.
The winners of the game scheduled for Belfast on 17 September could face the winners of Flora Tallinn v KR Reykjavik or KI of The Faroe Islands, each of these prospective opponents eminently beatable.
Of course there are more difficult possibilities like CFR Cluj, Dinamo Tbilisi and Djurgardens also lying in wait.
Either way, The Blues must not get ahead of themselves.
