There's no exiting this stadium without a winner tonight as it's the second leg of the Europa Conference League 2nd Qualifying Round meeting between Borac Banja Luka and Austria Wien. Game on!
These teams have little in common geographically as Austria Wien have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Tipico Bundesliga.
