Torpedo

Kutaisi ranked second in the Georgian league standings last season, winning silver medals. The new season got off to a flying start for Torpedo with a title win in the Super Cup of Georgia. The Scottish coach Steve Kean and his team beat Dinamo Batumi in the semifinals in a penalty shootout, 4:3, and then beat Dinamo Tbilisi 2:1 in regulation time.

It's worth mentioning the main transfer news of the off-season. Mamadou Sakho, formerly with Liverpool and PSG, has joined Torpedo Kutaisi.

Tirana

Tirana is the most successful club in Albania. However, the capital team's last championship finished in fifth place. They made it through to the Conference League by winning the national cup. In the final match, the capital team beat Partizani 1:0. After a controversial last season, Tirana changed their head coach. The team is now led by Bledi Shkembi, who previously coached the Albanian youth national teams.

Expert Betting Tips

Torpedo made some great additions to their team over the off-season and showed some impressive soccer skills in the Super Cup of Georgia.
