Jagiellonia Bialystok once again aim to enter the main stage of the UEFA Europa League and do so for the third season in a row. Known by the nickname "Jaga," the team from Bialystok — the largest city in northeastern Poland and the country's 10th — wears yellow and red, colors anchored in the historic local dynasty. Over the course of a few years, Jagiellonia gradually made a name for itself on the European stage. Two seasons ago, they reached the quarter-finals of the Europa Conference League and were knocked out by Real Betis after a brief Europa run from a ninth-placed league finish. Last season, the team recorded a tough match when they were beaten by Fiorentina in the play-off round, 5-4 on aggregate after extra time — a sign that the Jagiellonia can cause problems for bigger opponents. Having finished in third place in the Ekstraklasa, Jagiellonia began the new campaign in the Europa League qualifiers and will be looking to take the final step towards the main tournament. It hasn't been easy for neighboring teams in the league; Lech Poznan crashed out after losing a 4-1 lead against AGF Aarhus and lost in a penalty shootout, while Gornik Zabrze suffered a 2-1 aggregate defeat against Fenerbahce.

Domestically, the team has had a happy start to the new season: they are in second place in the Ekstraklasa table by goal difference, behind Legia Warsaw after winning their first two league matches. New prospect Nik Prelec — the Slovenian who signed from Oxford United this summer — scored in both wins: a 1-0 home win against Korona Kielce and a 2-1 away win against Motor Lublin. Attacking midfielder Bartosz Mazurek was left behind after he was sold to Salzburg, but the Danish team replaced Anders Klynge from Bodo/Glimt. Poland-capped defensive midfielder Taras Romanczuk leads the group as captain. The roster includes former Derby County winger Kamil Jozwiak and former Celtic centre-half Yuki Kobayashi. There is also a historical connection to Glasgow: in the 2017-18 season, former Celtic striker Cillian Sheridan and former Thistle defender Ziggy Gordon were in the team, part of the time when Adrian Siemieniec — now head coach after being promoted from assistant three years ago — was on staff. This week, attention will turn to the 22,432-capacity Chorten Arena as Rangers arrive for the first leg of the qualifying tie. This match will measure Jagiellonia's desire to not only reach qualification but enter the Europa League proper, a move that will cement their identity on the European football stage. Jagiellonia's journey to Europe isn't just about results—it's also the story of the rise of a team from the northeastern region of Poland and the continued development of the squad despite transfers and league challenges. The test against Rangers is a big chance to prove they deserve to continue on the continental stage.

What's next

In their next match, Jagiellonia will face Rangers in the Europa League qualifiers, where victory will allow them to enter the main tournament. Their season outlook hinges on their ability to overcome challenges from league rivals and achieve their goal of qualifying for the Europa League. The results of their rivals such as Lech Poznan and Gornik Zabrze underline the importance of each match in their campaign.
