KÍ eliminated Atert Bissen 4-2 on aggregate. Kauno Žalgiris arrive from a physically demanding 3-2 tie against Drita.
KÍ's artificial-pitch home edge and European record justify protection in a likely narrow first leg. With a return leg still to come, neither side needs to force the match before the structure opens naturally.
