Prediction: 2-2
Bayer Leverkusen
Puskas Arena will host Thursday’s Europa League game between Ferencvaros and Bayer Leverkusen. The BayArena outfit won the first leg (2-0), and, as a result, they are with one foot in the quarter-finals. Both Robert Andrich and Exequiel Palacios are back from suspensions, while there are no fresh injury worries in the Bundesliga team. All Wirtz, Schick, and Bellarabi return to contention after the trio was rested in a 3-2 win over Werder Bremen at the weekend.
The Hungarians, on the other hand, face a difficult task in the second leg as they need to overcome a two-goal deficit. Anyhow, both teams to score betting option should be considered as Ferencvaros have no other option but to adopt an attack-minded approach in Thursday’s encounter. The good news for the home team is that Morocco international Ryan Mmaee has overcome his injury.
Highlighted Player (Patrik Schick):
Patrick Schick is a Czech Republic international who plays for Sampdoria as a striker. Schick was born in Prague on January 24, 1996 and he started his career at the youth team of his home-town club Sparta Prague. The 187-cm-tall attacker, played only four games for the capital club before moving to Bohemians 1905 on loan in 2015.
After ending his loan spell with the Klokani, Patrick Schick moved to Italy, signing a deal with Serie A side Sampdoria for a fee of €4 million. The Czech footballer has been playing for La Samp ever since and you should know that he scored 11 goals in 32 appearances for the club in the 2016/2017 Serie A campaign.
The talented striker, who is very good in the air, scored on his debut for Czech Republic in a 6-0 win over Malta in May 2016. Patrick Schick’s preferred foot is left and his contract with Sampdoria should expire on June 30, 2020.
Highlighted Team (Ferencvaros):
Established back in 1899, Ferencvaros are the most successful Hungarian club. The Zold Sasok clinched their 30th domestic trophy in the 2018/2019 season, but they eventually failed to book their place in the Champions League. Dinamo Zagreb proved to be a big catch for Ferencvaros in the Champions League play-offs, but the Green Eagles booked their spot in the Europa League group stages for the first time ever the same season.
Ferencvaros are well known for their green and white home kit, but they wear white shirts and white shorts when playing on the travels. Ujpest are considered the club’s fiercest rivals, whilst Ferencvaros and MTK Budapest face each other in the Eternal derby.
Honved are seen as the club’s bitter rivals as well. Back in 1975 the Zold Sasok made it to the UEFA Cup Winner’s Cup, with the team losing to Ukrainian club Dynamo Kiev in the title game. Sandor Kocsis, who scored 75 goals in 68 appearances for the Hungarian national team, is the club’s most notable footballer.
