Match Facts
Elfsborg’s only previous meeting with French opponents was back in the 1978-79 UEFA Cup, beating Strasbourg 2-1 at home but losing 4-1 away to be eliminated in the first round.
Nice have lost both of their previous away games against Swedish sides in all competitions, with both coming against Örgryte IS (1-2 in the 1966-67 Fairs Cup, 2-3 in the 2003 Intertoto Cup).
Elfsborg have won two UEFA Europa League games this season, the first time they’ve won two games in a single major European campaign. Only two Swedish teams have won 3+ games in a Europa League season, with Östersunds FK doing so in 2017-18 (4) and Malmö FF winning three in 2019-20.
Nice have won just one of their last 15 UEFA Europa League matches (D2 L12), beating Hapoel Be’er Sheva 1-0 in October 2020.
Elfsborg rank bottom for each of successful passes (1,279), average possession (31.3%) and passing accuracy (70.6%) in this season’s UEFA Europa League.
