“UEFA, following its long-standing practice, does not comment on investigations into potential match-fixing in order not to compromise the investigation. UEFA constantly monitors all activities that may signal potential match-fixing in cooperation with national associations,” the body said.

Both games were second legs and all four clubs have already been eliminated from European competitions.
