Match preview

Having worked so hard to qualify for Europe last season, Gil Vicente will be determined not to fall at the first hurdle.

The Roosters ended up fifth in last year’s Primeira Liga, their highest finish since 2000.

Thus, this’ll be their first-ever appearance in UEFA competition, with Ivo Vieira’s team determined to make it an occasion to savour.

Rīga FC meanwhile have already had to win two ties just to get this far, hammering Derry City 4-0 and Ružomberok 5-1.

The Latvian side reached the play-off round in both 2019 and last season, falling to København and Lincoln Red Imps.

In this tie, the club only founded eight years ago are big underdogs.

Will the Portuguese visitors leave Skonto stadions with a victory?
