Austria Wien will host Legia Warsaw at the Generali Arena in the second leg of the UEFA Europa Conference League third qualifying round.
Austria Wien will host Legia Warsaw at the Generali Arena on Thursday in the second leg of the UEFA Europa Conference League third qualifying round. The Austrian side has one foot in the playoffs. Austria Wien beat Legia 2-1 in the first leg. Muharem Huskovic netted a brace for Wien. However, Ernest Muci pulled one back for the Polish side late on. Nevertheless, it was too late too little for the Polish side. At the weekend, though, Wien saw their three-game winning run end following a 2-0 loss to RB Salzburg in the Austrian Bundesliga. It was their second top-flight defeat in three games season as they slipped to eighth in the standings.
Wien is looking to make their second straight appearance in the Conference League. However, Legia, they are hoping to return to the European stage for the first time in two years. That ambition is under threat, as the Polish outfit must win the second leg by at least two goals to advance. Like Wien, Legia, too, failed to win their league game following their European clash, drawing 1-1 with Puszcza Niepolomice in the Polish Ekstraklasa. Although the tie is poised for Wien, Legia will still fancy their chances to upturn the first-leg lead.
