UEFA lists ten Europa League matches for Thursday 17 September. OFI–Hoffenheim and Levski–Salzburg begin at 5:45pm WAT.
The 8:00pm WAT wave contains Beşiktaş–Marseille, Celtic–Ferencváros, Crystal Palace–Lech, Viktoria Plzeň–Union SG, Juventus–NEC, Lillestrøm–Torreense and Real Sociedad–Bournemouth.
The practical choice is consequence: Juventus carry expectation, Celtic offer the loudest home setting, and Sociedad–Bournemouth may provide the quickest transition game.
All kickoff conversions use West Africa Time. Supporters should still check UEFA's match centre before travel or viewing because operational changes can occur.
