Match preview
Slavia Prague come into this tie as big favourites, so will they leave Miejski Stadion Piłkarski with a first leg lead?
So far this season, the Slavists have hammered St Joseph’s 11-0 on aggregate, before edging out Panathinaikos.
In the previous round, a 2-0 victory in Prague was followed by last Thursday’s 1-1 draw in Greece, in which Václav Jurečka’s side secured progression.
Few clubs, outside Europe’s ‘big’ leagues, have enjoyed more success than Slavia Praha in UEFA competition in the last four season.
Jindřich Trpišovský’s side reached the Europa League quarter-finals in both 2019 and 2021, before also reaching the last eight of the inaugural Europa Conference League last season.
So, if the Czech club were to fall in this tie, it would be seen as a major failure.
The Medallions made their debut in Europe last season, winning two qualifiers before losing to Gent in the play-off round.
This season, they’ve hammered Astana and then Spartak Trnava but, given the difficulty of this draw, Raków could be set for play-off defeat déjà vu.
