It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Ekstraklasa.

The traveling awayteam has defeated Bodø / Glimt in order to reach 2nd qualifying round of Champions League. Legia Warszawa's mission in Champions League last season failed in the 2nd qualifying round.

When we have look at the Champions League statistics, we find 3W-0D-0L. This is both home and away. In general it has been a productive period now for Warszawa as they haven't lost any of their last 16 games.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Ekstraklasa trip to Radomiak Radom.
