Slavia Prague is set to square off against CFR Cluj in the first leg of the Champions League playoff round at Dr. Constantin Radulescu Stadium at 3 p.m. ET August 20th. Whoever loses (based on the aggregate score of this leg and the next) will be relegated to the group stage of the Europa League.

Last year, Slavia Prague bowed out in the third qualifying round, losing to Dynamo Kiev 1-1 and 0-2. They then made it all the way to the Europa League quarter-finals but were eliminated by Chelsea. As for CFR Cluj, they lost in the second qualifying round to Malmo on scores of 0-1 and 1-1. In subsequent Europa League play, they made it as far as the playoff round but did not advance further.
