TVP Sport to show Lech Poznań and GKS Katowice ties

TVP Sport has confirmed it will broadcast the upcoming European qualifying ties involving Lech Poznań and GKS Katowice, giving Polish supporters clarity over where they can watch both clubs in the next round.

TVP Sport confirms coverage

The official announcement came via TVP Sport, which stated that it will show the two-legged ties featuring Lech against Klaksvik and GKS Katowice against Hapoel Tel Aviv. The matches form part of the third qualifying round in UEFA competition.

It means Telewizja Polska will carry both of those upcoming ties at a time when Polish clubs’ European qualifiers have been spread across several broadcasters. According to the source material, supporters have already been able to watch matches this season on outlets including TVP Sport, Polsat Sport, Kanał Sportowy and Republice Plus.

Lech continue in the Europa League qualifiers

Lech Poznań are no longer in contention for the Champions League league phase after their exit in the second qualifying round. Their European campaign, however, remains alive, with the Polish champions now moving into the third qualifying round of the Europa League.

Lech were paired with Klaksvik after a dramatic and damaging elimination against Aarhus. The source describes that defeat as a major setback, particularly because Lech had won the away leg 4-1 before losing the return by the same scoreline and then going out on penalties.

After that match, head coach Niels Frederiksen said his side had lacked efficiency, adding that while Lech had created chances, they were not clinical enough on the night.

GKS Katowice set for Hapoel Tel Aviv test

GKS Katowice will face Hapoel Tel Aviv in the third qualifying round of the Conference League. The Polish side reached this stage by overturning a first-leg defeat against MSK Żylina, losing the opener 0-1 before responding with a 3-1 win in the second match.

Hapoel Tel Aviv advanced after beating Łudogorec Razgrad 2-0 and then drawing 2-2 in the return leg. That sets up a notable challenge for GKS as they continue their own European run.

Five Polish clubs still involved in Europe

The source notes that five Polish clubs remain active in European qualifying, even though none can now reach the Champions League league phase.

• Lech Poznań, Górnik Zabrze and Jagiellonia Białystok are competing in the Europa League qualifiers.
• Raków Częstochowa and GKS Katowice are in the Conference League qualifiers.

For viewers, the key update is straightforward: TVP Sport will be the home of the next ties for Lech Poznań and GKS Katowice, with both clubs aiming to keep Poland’s European interest alive for at least another round.
