Malmö FF have a 3-1 lead from home as they go to Turkey to try to get into the Europa League group stage.

But in Sivas they have not given up.

The city stands behind its team and the mayor has taken the initiative to buy up all available tickets and then distribute them to the residents.

- On Thursday, the pride of our city has a return match in the Europa League.

I hope that Sivasspor will represent our city and our country's football in the best possible way.

We trust Sivasspor.

As the twelfth player, our city has a great responsibility, says Hilmi Bilgin.

Sivasspor coach Rıza Çalımbay is happy that the city is doing what they can to help the team:

- Malmö had great support from their fans in the first match.

All we want is for our fans to come to the game.

With their support, we will become even stronger, he says.

If Malmö manage to win the second leg against Sivasspor, they go to the Europa League group stage.

If they lose, they are ready for the third Europa Conference League tournament.
