Match preview

Lech Poznań will make the relativity short 480 mile journey north with a two-goal lead to defend, so can they make that advantage count?

A week ago, the Polish champions established a 2-0 first leg advantage, thanks to Antonio Milić’s header and then a cool finish by Filip Marchwiński.

Will this two-goal margin prove insurmountable?

Lech Poznań are on the cusp of a first-ever European quarter-final appearance, with this set to be their 18th continental match of the season already.

John van den Brom’s team began in the first qualifying round on 5 July, notably knocking out Hapoel Be’er Sheva, Austria Wien and Bodø/Glimt amongst others.

The Railwaymen are winless in 11 European away fixtures, so will be delighted to be leading ahead of the visit to Stockholm.

Once there, accumulated 16 points, winning five straight matches, thereby cruising to top spot.

Kim Bergstrand and Thomas Lagerlöf’s team have won all six home games in this tournament, so will believe a comeback is possible.

Will it be a famous night for the Djurgården supporters inside Tele2 Arena?
