Kairat Almaty of Kazakhstan are hosting Greek side Olympiakos at 15:30 GMT on Tuesday due to time difference issues. The match is in its own earlier time slot as Uefa does not permit matches to kick-off later than 22:00 in the local time zone. Kazakhstan is five hours ahead of time in the United Kingdom, meaning that Tuesday's match kicks off at 20:30 local time.

Kairat's Dastan Satpayev sent a curling shot goalwards which took a deflection and clipped the crossbar, and the visitors were unable to hold out until the break. On the stroke of halftime, Denzel Dumfries sent a cross into the box and, after Francesco Pio Esposito and Martinez both had efforts blocked, Martinez managed to bundle the ball over the line while falling backwards.
