FC Lugano is set to face one of three potential Cypriot opponents—APOEL Nicosia, Omonia Nicosia, or Pafos—in the Round of 16 of the UEFA Conference League. Lugano secured their spot after a 2-2 draw with Pafos, who must first navigate the Round of 32 against Omonia. The draw for the next round will take place on February 21, with matches scheduled for March 6 and 13. Due to ongoing stadium renovations, Lugano will once again host their home game in Thun.
