Fenerbahçe meanwhile, fell short of Galatasaray once again, coming second in the Turkish league. Fenerbahçe lost at this stage of qualifying last year, to LOSC Lille over two legs and they now have to battle back to avoid a repeat.
Feyenoord enter the qualification stage of the Champions League following their third-place finish in the Eredivisie last season. Last season, Feyenoord came 19th in the league phase, before knocking out AC Milan, then falling short Inter Milan in the last 16.
Of course, these sides operate in completely different countries, therefore have not met often historically. There have been just four matches in this fixture.

The Turkish giants look well-drilled heading into the competitive season, but that first leg in Rotterdam gave Mourinho and his side a serious reality check. They must be better to advance to the next round.
Feyenoord Last 5 Matches:
Opposite fortunes for Robin Van Persie’s side, however, with them having a mixed pre-season in terms of results. However, they have started the competitive campaign strongly and look to make it three wins from three games and also book their passage through into the play-off round.

Football Park’s Best Bet: Fenerbahçe to Win @ 1.53 - Our team of in-house betting tipsters have predicted a home victory in this fixture. Recent head-to-head and form suggest confidence in a Fenerbahçe victory. They are not down and out yet, and Mourinho has a very strong record in Europe. This tie is far from over.
Youssef En-Nesyri (Fenerbahçe): We believe the Moroccan will get the nod over Jhon Duran for this game, following the former’s crucial contributions last season, with his 20 goals in the league and six in Europe key to their respective performances as they look to improve this campaign.
Quinten Timber (Feyenoord): When he isn’t injured, Timber is definitely one to keep an eye on. The midfielder had an excellent year last season, making 2 tackles per 90, and recovering the ball 3.2 times per game, as well as chipping in with six league goals.
Referee: István Kovács (ROU). The Romanian official has a wealth of experience and a strong resumé, overseeing 435 matches, handing out an average of 4.4 yellow cards per match.
Stadium Information: Ülker Stadyumu Fenerbahçe Şükrü Saracoğl is located in Istanbul, Türkiye. The historic venue opened in 1908 and is sure to hold well over 45,000 fans in what is set to be a raucous atmosphere on Tuesday.
