Brann and Hacken meet on Thursday in the second leg of their UEFA Europa League third qualifying round tie, with the Norwegian side boasting a solid 2:0 lead from last week’s first-ever meeting between the clubs. 

The Norwegians will be confident of finishing the job in front of their home support at Brann Stadion, while Hacken face a huge challenge to overturn the deficit and keep their European campaign alive.

    Europa League

Brann and Hacken have met on just one previous occasion. Brann claimed a 2:0 first leg victory in Sweden last week. 

Brann team overview

Brann heads into the second leg with a healthy advantage after their 2:0 victory in Gothenburg. Sævar Atli Magnússon’s brace secured an impressive road victory for Eriki Horneland's men and the Icelandic forward is expected to start again. 

The hosts are in strong form at Brann Stadion, winning three of their last four home matches in all competitions. Brann also claimed victory in both of their last two matches, including last week's first leg, and a fine 4:1 win at Sarpsborg ten days ago.

There are no fresh injury concerns for manager Horneland, who could name an unchanged side from last week’s win.

Hacken team overview

Hacken travel to Norway in poor form, having lost four of their last five matches. The Swedes have failed to win seven of their last eight games, including a goalless draw against Degerfors after last week's first-leg setback against Brann. 

The Swedish side have struggled defensively, conceding 12 goals in their last six matches. Hacken also failed to win four of their last five road games and they now face a stiff test against an in-form Norwegian opponent.

The visitors have no injury updates, although head coach Per-Mathias Høgmo may consider changes after last week’s disappointing home display.
