Standard Liège and Bala Town get a break from their league challenge to fight for a possible trophy in this Europa League 2nd Qualifying Round fixture.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!

Bala Town form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Valletta in order to reach 2nd Qualifying Round of Europa League. Bala's mission in Europa League last season failed in the preliminary round against Tre Fiori.It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Connah's Quay in their previous outing.

A quick return to home after this game, as Bala Town are hosting Cefn Druids in the Premier League only two days away.
