Match preview
After last Thursday’s commanding victory at Stadio di Cornaredo, Hapoel Be’er Sheva are in pole position to get through this tie.
Seven nights ago, goals from Tomer Yosefi and Astrit Selmani saw the Israeli side claim a 2-0 victory.
So, Elyaniv Barda’s side will just be looking to finish the job back at home.
To date, Hapoel Be’er Sheva have qualified for three Europa League group stages, these coming in 2016, 2017 and 2020.
Last season, they got all the way to the play-off round of this competition before falling to Anorthosis Famagusta.
Lugano meantime began their European adventure in this round, having won the Swiss Cup for the first time since 1993 back in May.
They were involved in the Europa League group stages in 2017 and 2019 but, having only won one of their last nine European away games, are up against it here.
The home side should get the required result at Turner Stadium and set up a Europa Conference League play-off round clash with Zorya Luhansk or Universitatea Craiova.
