FC Copenhagen will look to finish the job and qualify for the inaugural edition of the UEFA Europa Conference League when they host Sivasspor at the Parken Stadium on Thursday.
The Lions won the first-leg 2-1 in Turkey, with Kevin Diks and Jens Stage scoring for the visitors on either side of a goal from Leke James for the hosts.
A draw would now be enough for the Danish giants to book their place in the finals.
However, the Braves need to win by at least a two-goal margin in order to overturn the deficit.
It's a tough ask, considering the side have lost each of their last three games in all competitions, including the first leg of this fixture.

Sivasspor have a mountain to climb here as they have to score at least twice in the game.
