Drita have an ideal chance to provide Conference League groups for the first time in history

Drita plays tonight with Differdange, aims to advance to the play-off stage in the Conference League

Drita will descend on the green field tonight to play the first match of the Conference League play-off phase.

The team from Gjilan will host the Differdange team in the first match of this phase.

The Kosovo champion is counting on the great support of the fans tonight at the “Fadil Vokrri” stadium in Pristina, to create a solid advantage before the return match, which will be played in a week in Luxembourg.
This is not the first time that Zekirija Ramadani’s team will face Differdange, which they had defeated twice in the Champions League last month, 1:0 in Kosovo and 3:2 in Luxembourg.

Therefore, the team from Gjilan aims to repeat these two results to write their history, qualifying for the first time ever in the group stage of the Conference League, something that Balkan had achieved twice in previous years under coach Ilir Daja.

Drita was eliminated from the Champions League by Copenhagen, and from the Europa League by FCSB.

However, what it failed to do in these competitions, the Blue and White team is trying to do in the third most important competition in European football.

The match between Drita and Differdange will be played tonight in Pristina starting at 20:00.

Zekirija Ramadan’s team has shown their strength in several strong confrontations with Copenhagen and FCSB, but there was a lack of luck failing to qualify for two major European competitions such as the Champions League and the European League.

However, ‘Intellectuals’ have an ideal chance to provide Conference League groups for the first time in history, as they are already found in the ‘play-off’ stage and play against an opponent who know him as Differdange.

The cottage cheese team has good memories from past confrontations with Differdangen, which he had defeated twice in July – initially 1-0 in Milan and then 3-2 in Luxembourg.

Unlike, the return match takes place a week later in Luxembourg.
