There's no exiting this stadium without a winner tonight as it's the second leg of the Europa Conference League Round of 16 meeting between Nice and Sheriff. Game on!

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 2400 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

These are hustling days for the home side, as they had a match only four days ago in the Ligue 1. That game was an away game at Nantes, so at least Nice are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
