Get ready for the return leg of the Europa Conference League 3rd Qualifying Round between Levski Sofia and Hapoel Be'er Sheva. This should be an interesting match and this preview contains everything you need to know. Read on!

Hapoel Be'er Sheva have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2400 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Levski have less rest than Hapoel Be'er Sheva in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Parva Liga game only four days ago. This match was also played here at Vivacom Arena - Georgi Asparuhov. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Hapoel Be'er Sheva have had more rest.
