A Kilmarnock win against Cercle Bruges in the second leg of their Europa League qualifying tie would help lift a "hoodoo" from the club, according to Laurie Finlayson from The Killie View podcast. In their last European campaign in 2019, Killie were knocked out by Welsh part-timers Connah's Quay Nomads following an embarrassing 2-0 defeat at Rugby Park. This time around, Derek McInnes' side head to Belgium with the tie delicately poised following a 1-1 draw in the first leg, and Finlayson believes Killie can upset the odds and move a step closer to the competition's group stages.

The Gunners followed up a 1-1 draw with Bournemouth and a 2-1 win over Manchester United with the defeat at Lincoln Financial Field before immediately flying back to London to prepare for a friendly tournament with Bayer Leverkusen and Lyon at Emirates Stadium. "Yes, it is always disappointing when you lose but I think in general it has been a good tour and we are gaining a lot of fitness and some good answers in the game," Odegaard said post-match.
