PAOK – FC Slovan Liberec: Pregame Activities
After their back-to-back losses to Qarabağ FK, PAOK were considered all but eliminated. However their impressive in Florence changed the complexion of the group and the “Two-Headed Eagle” are still in the qualification game. FC Slovan Liberec also entertain some hope…
On the last matchday of the UEFA Europa League group stage, PAOK need to produce a better result than Qarabağ FK in order to leapfrog them and claim qualification to the last “32” stage. If the Azeri outfit defeat ACF Fiorentina, then they will be the ones to continue in the competition in February, regardless of the Toumba encounter.
FC Slovan Liberec need to win in Toumba and hope for ACF Fiorentina’s victory. That way –in a three-way draw- they will get second place behind the Italian outfit. The “Viola” will be eliminated only if they lose by six and PAOK win.
Pre-game activities in Toumba Stadium will start on Wednesday afternoon. Vladan Ivić will concede his press conference at 14:00 and players will be represented by Fernando Varela. PAOK’s last training session will be held at 17:00 in Nea Mesimvria, with the media able to attend the first 15 minutes.
FC Slovan Liberec will start training at 18:00 in Toumba Stadium and Jindřich Trpišovský’s press conference is scheduled at 17:15.
