If Ferencváros successfully beats the Irish champions on Thursday night and then beats the Maltese or Georgian champions, they could already qualify for the group stages of the European Conference League in the playoffs.
Here, even the Swedish champion Haken, eliminated by KÍ, who said goodbye to the FTC, could also be the opponent of the green-whites – and let’s be honest, given the history, it would be a juicy clash … – of course, this would require the defeat of the Swedish champion.
