The UEFA Champions League qualifying stage is almost complete

The UEFA Champions League qualifying stage is almost complete — and tonight, the final four play-off ties will decide which clubs take their place among Europe’s elite.

All eyes in Ukraine will be on Lisbon, where Benfica host Fenerbahçe in a high-stakes showdown. Ukrainian international goalkeeper Anatoliy Trubin has been confirmed in the starting XI by head coach Bruno Lage, as the Portuguese giants prepare to battle a revitalised Fenerbahçe side under the leadership of none other than José Mourinho.

The tie is wide open after a cagey first leg, and with Mourinho’s tactical mind at play, anything can happen at the Estádio da Luz.

Elsewhere, another finely poised encounter awaits in Copenhagen, where FC Copenhagen face FC Basel following a 1-1 draw in the first leg. With both sides pushing for a return to the Champions League spotlight, expect fireworks in the Danish capital.

In contrast, two teams are already within touching distance of the group stage. Club Brugge hold a commanding 3-1 away advantage as they return home to face Rangers, while Qarabağ FK carry the same lead into their second leg against Ferencváros.
