Match preview
After a stalemate at Rheinpark Stadion last Thursday, it’s winner takes all in Central Turkey.
Seven night ago, Franklin Sasere broke the deadlock with 18 minutes remaining, meaning Vaduz looked set for a famous win.
However, with just seconds of normal time to, Muhammet Demir equalised, meaning it ended 1-1 in Liechtenstein.
So now, with home advantage in this winner takes all game, Konyaspor are big favourites to advance.
The Anatolian Eagles finished third in last season’s Süper Lig, so are back in UEFA competition after five years away.
However, they’ve actually only won two of seven European matches at Konya Metropolitan Municipality Stadium, needing to improve that ratio.
Vaduz meantime are aiming to reach the play-off round for the first time ever.
The 48-times Liechtenstein Cup winners’ only previous tie at this stage saw them hammered 6-0 on aggregate by Eintracht Frankfurt.
Also, Vaduz had only won eight of 39 European away games before beating Koper in Slovenia last month, the win that saw them prevail in that tie.
Whoever does win in Konya will meet Rapid Wien or Neftçi Bakı in the Europa Conference League play-offs.
