Our prediction for this Europa League match:
St Gilloise play host to LASK at their Lotto Park in what is expected to be one of the most interesting games of Thursday’s program. Both Amoura and Kabangu are pushing for a start after the duo got their names on the scoresheet in a 4-1 win over Eupen, while experienced forward Guillaume Francois continues to miss out with injury.
The Black and Whites, on the other hand, have been struggling in Group E, with the team losing to both Liverpool and Toulouse in the process and given their difficulties on the road, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the Jupiler League outfit. LASK’s injury list is long, including the likes of Anselm, Renner, Pintor, Taoui, Wiesinger, and Luckeneder. Robert Zulj will continue leading the line for the Austrian side after scoring the winner against Salzburg at the weekend.
Highlighted Team (LASK):
Founded back in 1908, LASK are an Austrian football club that compete in the Bundesliga. Die Laskler play home games at Waldstadion in Pashing. The stadium with the capacity of 7,870 was opened in 1990 and nowadays is known under the name of Raiffeisen Arena. The club, though, welcome their rivals at the 14,000 capacity Linzer Stadion in European competitions.
Back in the 1964/65 season LASK clinched their first and only Austrian Bundesliga trophy, with the team finishing the campaign one point clear of second-placed Rapid Wien. LASK became the first club outside Vienna to win the domestic title and, to make things even better for the fans, die Laskler clinched the domestic cup the same year.
LASK’s home colours are white and violet, whilst they wear black and white when playing on the travels. In the 2018/2029 season LASK booked their place in the Europa League group stages.
