Velez Mostar and Inter Club Escaldes will square off in the first leg of their UEFA Conference League first qualifying round on Wednesday. The home side have not been in action since claiming a 5-1 away win over Tuzla City in May in the final game of their league campaign last season.

Inter Club, meanwhile, finalized their Andorran Primera Divisio with a 3-1 comeback away win over Penya in May. They went behind to Carlos Chirri's 12th-minute strike but Pablo Arganaraz scored either side of Marc Caballe to help the visitors leave with all three points.
The victory saw them end the campaign in second spot to secure their spot in the Conference League qualifiers.
The winner of this tie will face AEK Athens in the second round of the qulifiers.
