How to watch Hacken vs Aberdeen with live stream, kick-off and TV details for Europa League showdown

It's the night all at Aberdeen have been waiting for as they return to the city of one of their greatest achievements in search of another.

The 40th anniversary of the legendary Gothenburg Greats side has taken place this year and Barry Robson's men will hope for their own slice of European glory in Sweden. But while this isn't quite the size of beating Real Madrid in a European Cup Winners Cup showpiece, there's no underestimating how big Thursday's Europa League play-off with BK Hacken is.
