Partizan will host Nice at the Partizan Stadium for matchday two of the Europa Conference League in Group D on Thursday. Both teams drew on the opening day, so all four teams in the group are locked at a point apiece, leaving the race for progression wide open.
Partizan split points in a pulsating 3-3 draw at Slovacko, who snatched an 83rd-minute equaliser to force a share of the spoils after the visitors had fought back from two goals down to lead 3-2. Nice, meanwhile, drew 1-1 with Koln after a second half penalty from Andy Delort canceled out Steffen Tigges' early opener for the Billy Goats.
Interestingly, both Partizan and Nice recovered from their European stalemates with a win in their respective league games last weekend. Partizan secured a stunning 6-0 victory over Mladost Lucani, where Ricardo Gomes netted a hat-trick, while Nice saw off Ajaccio 1-0.
