As you know, according to the draw results for the UEFA Europa Conference League 2022/23 Second Qualifying Round, Konyaspor Club, the bronze medalist of the Turkish Championship 2021/22, got to compete with the Yellow-Blues. The host of the first leg match fell to be FC BATE Borisov. As a reminder, according to the decision of the UEFA Executive Committee, all Belarusian clubs participating in European Club Competitions shall not host their opponents at home stadiums.
Today was the deadline for submitting an application to UEFA about announcement of the match kick-off time and its venue. It should be noted that FC BATE worked out various options for neutral stadiums for the ‘home’ game. But, in the end, both matches (21 and 28 July) will be held at the Konya Büyükşehir Belediyesi stadium (capacity – 42 276). The kick-off time of the first leg match (it will be held without spectators) is 22:00, the second one – 21:00 local time (the same is in Belarus).
