On Thursday, 9 July 2026, the first match of the 1st qualifying round of the Conference League between Montenegro's Petrovac and Lithuania's Zalgiris will take place at the Pod Goricom Stadium in Podgorica. The match will kick off at 18:45 BST .
Petrovac are returning to European competition after 17 years and will try to surprise their more illustrious opponents, relying on discipline and the experience of their coach, who himself took the club into Europe as a player in 2009 . However, Zalgiris are the clear favourites in the tie, with extensive European experience and greater quality behind them, and they intend to seize the initiative away from home from the first minutes.
