Fenerbahce v Feyenoord
The winners of this tie will meet Benfica or Nice in the final playoff round – probably Benfica, who lead 2-0 from the first leg in France. The last time Fenerbahce reached the Champions League proper was in 2008-09; the last time Jose Mourinho did so was, I think, at Spurs in 2019-20.
