It's game one of two in the Europa Conference League as PAOK host Beitar Jerusalem. This is a 2nd Qualifying Round fixture played over two legs and nothing will be decided tonight.
These teams have little in common geographically as Beitar Jerusalem have to travel 2400 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
