Prediction: 0-1
Nice
Basel and Nice go head to head at St. Jakob Parkin what is expected to be one of the most interesting games of Thursday's program. Basel failed to win the domestic trophy, and, no doubt, they are eager to go all the way in the Conference League. The RotBlau defeated Slovan Bratislava on penalties in the previous round, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Nice. Both Frei and Comas continue to miss out with injuries for the Swiss outfit.
Les Aiglons, on the other hand, proved their worth in back-to-back wins over Sherrif Tiraspol, and seeing that key defender Dante is back from suspension, away win should be considered. All Atal, Diop, Lotomba, and Viti should miss out through injuries for the visiting side. The two teams have never met before in European competitions.
Highlighted Player (Michael Lang):
Standing tall at 1.85 m, Michael Lang is a Swiss international defender who has gone through all ranks of the Switzerland national team to earn his senior call-up in 2013. Michael Jang began his professional career playing for FC St. Gallen where he spent five years before he moved to Grasshopper. During his four-year spell with the club he racked up 127 league appearances and scored 12 goals.
In 2015 Lang joined FC Basel on a free transfer, for whom he scored his first goal against the old club Grasshoppers only a week after his arrival. Michael Lang made 22 Swiss Super League appearance during the title winning season 2015-16, making an important contribution to his club’s 19th championship title in history.
During that time the 25-year-old Swiss international also managed to bag five goals for his club, which is regarded as a considerable tally for a defender. Having gone into the new season with two goals to his name already, Lang is expected to play a significant part in his team’s UEFA Champions League challenge.
Highlighted Team (Nice):
OGC Nice are a football club that participate in French Ligue 1. Les Aiglons welcome their opponents at Allianz Riviera and the club was founded on 9 July, 1904 by Marquis Massengy d’ Auzac.
OGC Nice won their first Ligue 1 trophy back in 1951 and eight years later they clinched their fourth and last domestic title. Speaking of the French Cup, les Aiglons won their third Coupe de France title in 1997. Allianz Riviera has been the home ground of the club since September, 2013 and it has to be noted that the construction of the venue cost €250 million. OGC Nice play their home games in red and black shirts and black shorts, while the colour of their away kits is white.
The Ligue 1 team booked their place in the Europa League group stages for the 2016/2017 season for the first time in the club’s history and they were drawn alongside Schalke 04, Salzburg and Krasnodar in Group I.
