Astana host the first leg in this deciding Europa Conference League Play-offs game. Partizani Tirana will try their very best to bring a solid result back to Stadiumi Selman Stërmasi before the return leg in 8 days.

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 5700 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

Little time to rest for the hosts, as they performed in a Premier League fixture only four days back. Thankfully the previous game, versus Kaisar, was also a home game here at Astana Arena. The away team is better rested.
