FC DAC 1904 Dunajská Streda set for Conference League play‑off against FC Twente

The UEFA draw in Nyon paired Slovak side FC DAC 1904 Dunajská Streda with Dutch club FC Twente in the Conference League play‑off round. The first leg will be played on Thursday at Twente’s Grolsch Veste in Enschede, with the return match scheduled for 27 August in Dunajská Streda.

DAC entered the tie after advancing past FK Velež Mostar in the previous qualifying round, winning 3‑0 on aggregate. In domestic competition they recently beat Dukla Banská Bystrica 2‑0. Twente, coached by John van den Brom, are eager to bounce back after a 2‑1 loss to KRC Genk and to secure a spot in the group stage following an early exit from the Europa League.

Both clubs view the tie as a chance to progress in Europe, with DAC hoping to host the decisive second leg at their home stadium and Twente aiming to capitalize on home advantage in the first match.
