Match preview
Having left Stadionul Sepsi Arena 3-1 winners, Djurgårdens IF are in a great position to continue their European adventure.
A week ago, Victor Edvardsen broke the deadlock from the penalty spot in Romania, before Joel Asoro’s brace put his team firmly in control.
Alexandru Tudorie did then convert a spot-kick of his own, but this was unable to spark a late comeback from the home side.
So, will the home fans be celebrating in Stockholm?
Djurgården competed in the quarter-finals during the first-ever edition of the European Cup back in 1955/56.
Sepsi OSK Sfântu Gheorghe meanwhile actually finished seventh last season, but qualified for this competition by winning the Cupa României for the first time.
The Red and Whites won a European tie for the very first time in the previous round, ousting Olimpija Ljubljana on penalties.
However, baring a remarkable comeback at Tele2 Arena, Sepsi will bow out in this round.
Djurgården can, almost start planning for a Europa Conference League play-off against Kyzylzhar or APOEL.
