Scouting Report: Hajduk Split

Vedran Babic, a journalist for Croatian newspaper Slobodna Dalmacija, gives the lowdown on tonight’s opponents and explains why you can expect plenty of Hajduk fans in the away end this evening…

Vedran, tell us how Hajduk Split qualified for the Europa League this season.

It wasn't a surprise because Hajduk have been playing in the Europa League for the last seven or eight years. Every season, the two primary goals are to challenge for the league title and secure a spot in a European competition. Since 1993, Hajduk has only once missed out on a place in Europe (in 2006/07).
