TNS are winless in their last 3 friendlies and haven’t looked sharp in preseason, while Shkendija have improved in recent matches after a heavy loss to Koper. Their attack is clicking again, with 4 goals in the last 2 games.

While their 2018 head-to-heads were dramatic, much has changed. This tie looks relatively balanced, but Shkendija’s slightly better recent form and sharper edge in friendlies gives them a slight advantage.
