Beşiktaş and Trabzonspor's Europa League Play-Off Opponents Confirmed
The potential opponents Beşiktaş and Trabzonspor could face in the UEFA Europa League play-off round have been determined.
Beşiktaş will continue its UEFA Europa League journey if the club overcomes the Hradec Kralove hurdle. Should the black-and-whites advance past this round, they will face the losing side of the match between Dinamo Zagreb and Kauno Zalgiris in the play-off stage, playing the first leg at home.
On the Trabzonspor side, the picture has already become clearer. The Black Sea club will face the winner of the match between Ferencvaros and Górnik Zabrze in the play-off round. It should also be noted that Górnik Zabrze reached this stage after being eliminated by Fenerbahçe in the 2nd qualifying round of the Champions League.
The first legs of the play-off round will be played on August 20, with the return legs taking place on August 27. The winners of these matchups will earn the right to advance to the Europa League league phase, while the eliminated teams will continue their journey in the Conference League league phase.
An alternative scenario is also on the table for Beşiktaş. Should the black-and-whites be eliminated by Hradec Kralove, they are expected to face the winner of the UEFA Conference League play-off match between Panathinaikos and CSKA 1948.
