Wolfsberg will welcome Molde at the Lavanttal-Arena for the second leg of their EUFA Europa Conference League tie on Thursday night.
Wolfsberg claimed a 1-0 win at away in the first leg last week, with Tai Baribo scoring the sole goal, and they will now look to complete the job at home this week.
However, Wolfsberg head into the fixture off a 2-1 home defeat to Austria Vienna, extending their poor run in the domestic as they have now failed to any of their opening league matches losing the last three.
They therefore have much to do before the Thursday clash where they look to either add to or at least hold onto their 1-0 lead.
Molde meanwhile had shown their clash in the qualification campaign in the previous rounds, where they beat Elfsborg 6-2 on aggregate and Kisvarda 4-2 on aggregate.
The Norwegian side could not however, find a way back after falling behind midway through the first leg of this round, surrendering to a 1-0 defeat at home, despite being the better side on the day.
They will therefore be gutted not to have secured a first leg advantage last week and will hope to overturn the tie away from home on Thursday. They claimed a 1-0 away win over Haugesund in the Eliteserien and will looking to build on it.
