Feyenoord and Union Berlin will battle for three points on matchday three of the UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday.

Union Berlin secured a 2-0 home win over Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga. In-form Nigeria international Taiwo Awoniyi set the capital side on their way with his 49th-minute goal before Sheralde Becker made sure of the result in the 83rd minute.
Both sides will battle for top spot in Group E. Feyenoord lead the way at the summit with four points from two games, while Union Berlin are in third spot on three points.
