- Iberia are struggling after 2 straight defeats and a 4-0 European defeat in the home leg of this tie.

- Jaga have won 3 and drawn 1 of their last 4 games and drew 1-1 away to Rangers in UEFA Europa League Qualification 2026.
- Kajetan Szmyt is the sharp edge of Jaga and has registered two goals in three UEFA Europa League Qualification 2026 matches for the Polish outfit, who Adrian Siemieniec has been in charge of since 5 April 2023.
