AEK Athens host LASK at Allwyn Arena in Athens in a Champions League group stage fixture that brings together two sides who earned their places through qualifying.

Marko Nikolic's side come into the match in strong domestic form, having won four of their last five games across all competitions. A 5-0 demolition of Aris Thessaloniki in the Super League last weekend underlined their attacking intent heading into European competition.

LASK arrive from Austria carrying genuine momentum. Dietmar Kuehbauer's squad put five past Celtic in a Champions League qualifier last month, a result that announced their intentions on the continental stage.

Both clubs sit level at the top of the Champions League standings, which gives this fixture an added edge in the context of the group.

AEK will look to use the Allwyn Arena atmosphere to their advantage, while LASK will back themselves after a run of four wins from five across all competitions.
