AEK Athens host Levski Sofia with Champions League play-off spot on the line
AEK Athens welcome Levski Sofia to the Allwyn Arena on 26 August in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League play-off tie, with the sides level after a scoreless first meeting in Sofia on 18 August.
That stalemate leaves everything to play for in Athens, with a place in the competition proper awaiting whichever side can find the breakthrough over the return fixture.
Form guide
Both clubs arrive in good health domestically. AEK Athens have won three of their last five matches, drawing the other two without defeat, a run that includes their draw against Levski in the first leg.
Levski Sofia's recent record is marginally stronger, with four wins from their last five outings and a single draw, giving them a slight edge in confidence heading into the second leg, even if it counts for little once the tie kicks off level.
What is at stake
With the aggregate score locked at 0-0, the tie is effectively a one-off decider at the Allwyn Arena. Neither side managed to score in the opening leg, so a single goal in Athens could prove decisive in determining who advances in the play-off round.
