Switzerland's FC Basel 1893 have one foot in the UEFA Champions League group stage after a 4-2 away win at Bulgarian champions Ludogorets Razgrad in the first leg of their play-off tie.
Though Basel went in from through Mohamed Salah, they were 2-1 down five minutes into the second half following goals from Marcelinho and Ivan Stoyanov.
Murat Yakin's side's class ultimately told, though, as Salah added a second before further efforts from Giovanni Sio and Fabian Sch?r, the latter from the penalty spot after J?nior Cai?ara was sent off for Ludogorets, UEFA.com informs.
The hosts' UEFA Champions League hopes are hanging by a thread, and the Bulgarians would most likely end up in Europa League.
