On Tuesday evening, Zalgiris and Struga go head-to-head in the Champions League first qualifying round first leg.

Zalgiris have struggled for victories on their travels in the Champions League, as they have won two of their last 11 matches in the competition away from home.
Struga
The Macedonian team have a decent recent competitive record in all competitions, having also scored at least two goals in six of their last seven competitive matches.
However, Struga has not played a competitive game since May, only playing recent friendly matches of late.

Veteran striker Besart Ibraimi has been prolific, as the 36-year-old has scored seven goals in his last ten matches in all competitions.
