International cups are a highlight for most teams. Both FCSB and Slovan Liberec are looking forward to this Europa League fight to decide who advances from the 3rd Qualifying Round.
It's no vacation for neither FCSB nor Slovan Liberec as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Slovan Liberec have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1400 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
