Levski Sofia ended a 17-year wait for the Parva Liga title by lifting the 2025-26 crown, earning a place in the Champions League qualifying rounds for the first time since 2009-10.
The Blues are aiming to reach a European group stage for the first time since consecutive Europa League campaigns in 2009-10 and 2010-11.
They made a solid start by claiming a 1-1 draw away to Borac Banja Luka in the opening leg of their first qualifying-round tie.
Back on home soil, Levski will be confident of finishing the job, having suffered just one defeat in their last 16 home matches.
Borac Banja Luka, meanwhile, have become a regular contender in European qualifying in recent years.
Their run to the Conference League round of 16 in 2024-25 marked the club's greatest continental achievement.
After missing out on Champions League qualification last season, the Red-Blues are looking to advance beyond the opening qualifying round for only the third time in their history.
While Vinko Marinovic's side head into the return leg unbeaten in their last 15 away matches across all competitions, their European away record is far less convincing, with just two wins from their last 18 continental trips.
