Ville Nevalainen has yet to officiate in a match involving a Hungarian side.

UEFA have appointed 32 year old Ville Nevalainen for Thursday's Q3, 1st leg tie. He has been a FIFA official since 2014 and refereed matches in the Finnish first division since 2011. He took charge of last week's EL Q2 match between Hearts and Birkirkara (1-2). It will be his fourth European game as a match official on Thursday. He has yet to be involved in a match involving a Hungarian side.

Nevalainen will be assisted by Ville Koskiniemi and Sami Nykänen, while fourth official will be Dennis Antamo.
