Slovan
- Slovan have won four of their last five matches in all competitions, so all momentum is on the home side heading into this matchup.

- Alasana Yirajang is Slovan's top scorer in this competition with 1 goal in 1 game so far, so he will be their main sharp shooter on the break.
- Tigran Barseghyan has also chipped in with 2 of Slovan's 5 goals in their last 5 matches so he will be another to watch for in the end-product department.
- Slovan's home record in all competitions stands at won 2, drawn 1 and lost 1 after 4 matches, conceding just 1.00 goal per match at home.
Iberia
- Iberia come into this game having won 4, drawn 2 and lost 4 in their last 10 across all competitions.

- Their away record in all competitions is won 1, lost 2 after 3 trips, conceding 2.33 goals per match on the road.
- Nika Sikharulashvili is Iberia's top-scorer in UEFA Champions League Qualification 2026 with 2 goals in 3 matches, so he will be their biggest danger at the top of the attack.
- They drew 2-2 with Flora Tallinn at home before losing 2-0 to Slovan in their own backyard, so their start to the qualifying campaign has not been the most solid.
