A stadium sandwiched between the sea, a runway and the famous Rock of Gibraltar. The Victoria Stadium - Gibraltar's national stadium - is in itself not that special, but the location and those spectacular views make everything right. This week, the Lincoln Red Imps and FC Magpies play a home game here. Quite logical, because its the only stadium in the tiny state and all Gibraltar clubs call this stadium their home.

In the Stadiumi Fadil Vokrri in Pristina, Kosovar champion Ballkani receives the Bulgarians of Ludogorets Razgrad, and also Dukagjini play a home game here this week.

On the cool Faroe Islands you're probably not impressed by the wonderful football temples and most outstanding creations, but the landscape is breath taking. In the Við Djúpumýrar it almost seems like you're moving in some sort of a giant painting. Almost distracting, maybe the players of Ferencváros could use it as an excuse for not taking the victory yesterday.

A stadium that recently even hosted a European final. In the Air Albania Stadium in Tirana, Feyenoord and AS Roma battled each other in the 2022 Conference League Final, with the latter bringing the cup home. For Albanian sides it's their regular fall-back solution when qualifying for European football, in this case for Partizan Tirana and KF Tirana. The Albanian national team plays its home matches here as well.

Its quite unusual to have a gigantic stadium as this one in this phase of a European tournament, the Astana Arena with 30.000 seats. Built in 2009, it's even equipped with a retractable roof, to arm the matches against harsh Kazakh winters.

The Stade Jos Neubaum is located in the very south of Luxembourg, right next to the border with France. It's characterized by the serious height differences around the stadium, and the beautiful spot in the hilly landscape. Thanks to that, you could also easily see F91 Dudelange's home games from a nearby slope, but it's never as much fun as buying a ticket and see the match from inside.

The Faroe Islands are well visited in these rounds. HB (we'll spare you the full name) receives the Irish Derry City in Tórsvøllur, the national stadium of the island group. A stadium for flood light enthousiasts, masts with a kink like these we've never seen before.

The Tose Proeski Arena in North-Macedonian capital of Skopje has a couple of special characteristics that make this stadium quite cool. Because of the running track you sit a little bit too far from the pitch, but the steep stands and wavy roof make up for that.

FK Željezničar Sarajevo is one of the biggest clubs in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and before the breakup of Yugoslavia they were a real force to be reckoned with. For many years they have been playing in the Stadion Grbavica now, which is due to its location and the club's successes nicknamed 'Dolina Cupova', the Valley of the Cups. Hard to beat that one, isn't it?
