Europa League campaign starts in Tallinn

Eintracht’s European adventure for the 2019/20 season will start in the second qualification round against FC Flora Tallinn, with the Estonians getting through their opening-round clash thanks to a draw in the second leg.

Eintracht will play the first match of their international campaign away to FC Flora Tallinn.
After defeating FK Radnicki Nis 2-0 in the first leg, Flora Tallinn then drew 2-2 away in Serbia which was enough to see them through – an impressive result over the two legs, with Nis going into the tie as favourites after finishing second in the Serbian top flight last season. The Tallinn team, however, had the advantage of being half-way through their current league campaign, and are currently top of their championship after 19 matches.

The first match of Eintracht’s international season will be played on Thursday 25 July at 19:00 CEST (20:00 local time) at the A. Le Coq Arena in the Estonian capital. The return leg will be a week later, on Thursday 1 August at 20:30 CEST at the Commerzbank Arena.

The third-round match-ups will be drawn in Nyon on Monday 22 July.
