Vikingur v Linfield (19:00 BST)
There's certainly no lack of experience as the two captains come together to shake hands.
Jamie Mulgrew, at the age of 39, is already the club's record appearance holder in European competition and he extends that sequence further tonight as he makes his 63rd appearance in continental competition.
But he is almost a youngster in comparison to his counterpart Atli Gregersen, who skippers Vikingur at the age of 43!

Vikingur v Linfield (19:00 BST)
Linfield will be feeling good following their 2-0 win against Zalgiris after the scoreless draw in the first leg in Lithuania.
They will seek to build upon that when they take on Vikingur Gota from the Faroe Islands in round three of qualifying, but their opposition have had their moments in European qualifying in the past.
Vikingur won a third league title in their history in 2024 to take their place in the Champions League qualifiers, but lost out to Gilbralter's Lincoln Red Imps which saw them drop into round three of the Conference League qualifiers.
Last year, they beat Latvia's FK Liepaja over two legs in qualifying before bowing out against Belgium's Gent, while their best European run occurred in the 2014-15 season when beating Latvia's FC Daugava and Norway's Tromso before falling to HNK Rijeka of Croatia.
Domestically, this season has not gone to plan as they currently sit in fourth place in the Faroe Islands Premier League, 19 points behind leaders Kl Klaksvik.
The first leg takes place in Torshavn tonight with the return leg at Windsor Park next Thursday.
The winner will move into a final play-off against the loser of the Europa League tie between Shelbourne and Croatia's HNK Rijeka.

Vikingur v Linfield (19:00 BST)
Linfield boss David Healy names an unchanged line-up from the side which saw off Zalgiris a week ago, with midfielder Josh Archer having recovered from an injury which forced him off in that game.
There are personal milestones for Blues duo Jamie Mulgrew, who plays his 800th game for the club, and Kirk Millar, whose 37th appearance in European competition sees him move above the legendary Noel Bailie and into third position on Linfield's all-time list of appearances in continental competition.
Santa Clara struck three times in the first half to take control of the tie

Larne have a mountain to climb in the second leg of their Uefa Conference League third round qualifying tie after a 3-0 defeat by Santa Clara in the first leg at the Ballymena Showgrounds.
The Portuguese side blew Larne away with three goals in a ruthless first-half display courtesy of Wendel Silva and two from Gabriel Silva.
Nathan Rooney's side improved in the second half, but the damage was done in the first half, and they were indebted to goalkeeper Rohan Ferguson for keeping the score down.
The Invermen, who reached the league phase of this competition last year, will need to produce an unlikely comeback in Portugal next week to have any chance of progressing to the play-off round.
Ruthless Santa Clara take control of tie
Larne started the game positively, but it was Wendel Silva who opened the scoring at the other end just after the quarter hour mark.
He finished neatly first time from Gabriel Silva's delivery before provider turned goal scorer on 33 minutes.
The Brazilian winger played a one-two with Federico Venancio and finished into the empty net.
He netted again three minutes later as the Larne defence was pierced by Adriano's pass and Gabriel tucked home via the inside of the post.
Larne did stem the flow but struggled to test Gabriel Batista in the Santa Clara goal.
Ferguson made a good save to deny Vinicius Lopes from extending the visitors' advantage just after the restart.
Larne dug in and made things difficult in the second half, but it took a diving block from substitute James Simpson and a few more superb Ferguson saves to deny Serginho and Lopes respectively.
