Dutch-born Ghanaian attacker Kevin Luckassen is anticipating big games against Olympique Marseille and a return to the Netherlands to face FC Groningen in the Europa League after Friday morning's draw. 

Luckassen's Slovan Liberec were drawn with French giants Olympique Marseille, Portuguese side Sporting Braga and Dutch Eredivisie side FC Groningen in group F.

Liberec have reached the group stages for the second successive season and are hoping to improve upon last season's performance with the Ghanaian expected to be the fulcrum of their attack.

The 22-year-old Eindhoven-born has not returned to the Netherlands for football reasons since leaving AZ Alkmaar some three seasons ago and he has expressed anticipation of playing before his country of birth and other games after the Europa League draw on Friday morning.

Luckassen left AZ Alkmaar in 2013 to join Scottish side Ross County before leaving Czech Republic.
