Haka and Crusaders will play at least 180 minutes of football to decide who advances from this Europa Conference League 1st Qualifying Round battle. Get ready for the first 90 minutes!
Crusaders have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 3500 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
There haven't been much to rest for the home side, as they were involved in a Veikkausliiga fixture only four days earlier. Thankfully the previous game, versus Inter Turku, was also a home game here at Tehtaan kenttä. The away team is better rested.
