This game pits the two bottom teams of Group C: Standard Leige and Elfsborg. Each club has only one point from a draw against each other. Who ever wins will avoid the embarrassment of finishing in dead last. Leige are also looking to put an end to a long wait for a UEFA Europa League victory.
Standard, Legia Warszawa and FC Sheriff have all now gone nine UEFA Europa League games (excluding qualifying) without a win. It is a record held by FC Salzburg, FC Steaua Bucureşti (playing in Champions League this season) and PFC CSKA Sofia.
