  /  autty

Fehervar will invite Koln to the Sostoi Stadion for the second leg of their UEFA Europa Conference League playoff on Thursday.

The first leg in Germany ended in a surprise 2-1 win for Fehervar. Koln drew first blood with Florian Dietz's 14th-minute strike. However, after Julian Chabot was sent off for the hosts in the 20th minute, Fehervar capitalised on their numerical advantage to take the win.

The visitors scored through Budu Zivzivadze and Palko Dardai in the first half. They have home advantage in the second leg at home and will hope to complete the job.

Kingsley Ehizibue is considering a move away from the club and is unlikely to start here. Dimitris Limnios has returned from a loan spell but finds no place in the squad for this game.

Steffen Tigges' involvement remains doubtful, while Julian Chabot's red card keeps him out.
