Match preview
After the first leg at Başakşehir Fatih Terim Stadyumu ended all square, it’s winner takes all back in Belgium.
A week ago, Mounir Chouiar broke the deadlock for İstanbul Başakşehir, only for Dinis Almeida to equalise with two minutes remaining.
1-1 it finished in the Turkish capital, so who will prevail at Bosuilstadion?
İstanbul Başakşehir have featured in three UEFA group stages since their first in 2017, most recently making their Champions League debut two years ago.
So far, the Grey Owls have swatted aside Maccabi Netanya and Breiðablik, but this was always going to be a tougher assignment.
Royal Antwerp meantime have qualified for the Europa League in each of the last two seasons.
So far this time round, Mark van Bommel’s men have easily seen off Drita and Lillestrøm, and are in a good position to win this tie.
This one could go either-way in Antwerp.
