Lech Poznan make the trip to Iceland to face Breidablik on Wednesday night with this Champions League second qualifying round tie realistically over as a contest.
In last week's first leg in Poland, Lech Poznan ran out 7-1 victors, albeit at one stage being on level terms before the sending off of an opposing player.
Nevertheless, Breidablik will be looking for some respectability before they drop down the European pecking order in their bid to reach the League Phase of a continental competition for just the second time.
How the bookies see it: Surprise value in Lech Poznan
While punters will have to factor in potential changes to the Lech Poznan XI, Boylesports pricing the visitors at 8/11 feels like attractive betting odds.
Breidablik are only valued at 9/4 – hardly tempting for a team that shipped seven goals a week ago – with the draw at 3/1, a far more alluring price.
Head to head: First-ever competitive meeting
Although Breidablik are no strangers to the qualifying rounds of European competition since 2011-12, this is the first time that they are facing Lech Poznan in a European tie.
Furthermore, prior to this tie, they had never played a team from Poland. Meanwhile, Lech Poznan faced Icelandic opponents as recently as 2022-23, coming through 4-2 victors on aggregate in a Conference League third qualifying round tie against Vikingur Reykjavik.
Players to watch: Ishak to score in fourth successive game?
There were five different goalscorers for Lech Poznan in the first leg, Mikael Ishak scoring a hat-trick but all three of his strikes coming from the penalty spot.
Lech Poznan also prevailed 4-3 against Lechia Gdansk at the weekend, yet four different players scored with the only squad member to net in both games being Ishak.
Agust Orri Thorsteinsson netted twice during the Champions League first qualifying round tie and the Iceland Under-21 international may be one to watch here.
Predicted lineups: Breidablik to make at least one change
Breidablik will be forced into at least one alteration courtesy of Viktor Orn Margeirsson's first-half dismissal in the first leg.
Damir Muminovic could be drafted into the side as a straight replacement, while it remains to be seen whether Agust Gylfason will tinker further with his starting lineup given that they currently sit two points adrift of first place in the Icelandic top flight.
Gisli Thordarson is in line to start this contest for Lech Poznan having been introduced as a first-half replacement for Afonso Sousa in the first leg.
Timothy Ouma and Alex Douglas may also be drafted into the team, but it remains to be seen how much upheaval Niels Frederiksen will want to bring to his team.
Breidablik: Einarsson; Valgeirsson, Orrason, Muminovic, Jonsson; Gunnlaugsson, Jonsson, Ludviksson; Einarsson; Thorsteinsson, Thomsen
Lech Poznan: Mrozek; Pereira, Skrzypczak, Douglas, Gurgul; Ouma, Thordarson; Jagiello, Bengtsson, Ishak; Szymczak
Anything else catch the eye?
In six matches, including pre-season friendlies, since they returned to action, Lech Poznan have scored and conceded in every fixture.
There have also been an astonishing 20 goals in the last three encounters that the Polish champions have participated.
On the flip side, Breidablik have only shipped two goals and kept two clean sheets in four games when you take out the 10-man capitulation in the first leg.
However, they were held to a 1-1 draw at 11th-placed KR Reykjavik in the Icelandic top flight last time out.
