Match preview

Having won their fourth consecutive Nemzeti Bajnokság I title last season, Ferencváros are craving more UEFA group stage football.

Since ending their 14-year wait for group phase football in 2019, the Green Eagles have now reached two Europa Leagues and the Champions League in 2020.

This means Ferencváros have won ten of their last 12 qualification ties, only losing to GNK Dinamo and BSC Young Boys since 2018.

So, Stanislav Cherchesov's team are one of the favourites to reach the Champions League once again, or at least give it a good go.

In this tie, the Hungarian champions are overwhelming favourites, looking to take first leg lead back to Groupama Aréna.

FC Tobol meanwhile won just their second Kazakh Premier League trophy in 2021, 11 years after their first.

15 games into the 2022 campaign, they're one point below surprise leaders FC Aktobe.

In Europe, Tobol's best run actually came last season, beating Hajduk Split before losing to MŠK Žilina in the third qualifying round.

Thus, given that they're big underdogs, Tobol need to win this first leg at Kostanay Central Stadium.

The winners of this tie will take on ŠK Slovan Bratislava or Dinamo Batumi in the second round of Champions League qualifying.

As for the losers, they'll drop down to the Europa Conference League second qualifying round and meet the losers of Shkupi vs Lincoln Red Imps.
