In the Round of 16 of the Conference League, the second-leg match between Lugano and Celje will take place at Stadio di Cornaredo. In the first game at Zdezele, the Slovenian team secured a victory despite the visitors’ advantage, winning 1-0. Yellow-and-blue goalkeeper Ricardo Silva saved the hosts on five occasions. In stoppage time, the Bianconeri were reduced to ten men—German defender of Greek descent Antonios Papadopoulos received a red card. His teammate Mattia Bottani will also miss the upcoming match due to yellow card accumulation. For the same reason, Celje's Klemen Nemanič will be absent, as he received a booking in the 94th minute.
