with a rubber boss adaptor:

.... however the above are 40mm pipe, I don't know if you can narrower
ones to accept condensate pipe, but you can certainly get them to fit a
40mm pipe (not from Screwfix), so at worst you might need to use two and
step down via a bit of 40mm pipe.

May or may not need to be routed via a u-trap, depending on the boiler
instructions.

You can certainly get a rubber bung to drop 40mm to 20mm - I used on for
exactly that purpose to allow the condensate drain to feed into a
washing machine style stand pipe.
