Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-0
Lazio
There will be fireworks when Feyenoord and Lazio go head to head at De Kuip on Wednesday. The Rotterdammers have established themselves as the team to beat in Eredivisie, but they are surely capable of recording a good result in the Champions League as well. Barring any fresh injury worries, Arne Slot is unlikely to make changes to the team that outplayed Vitesse 4-0 at the weekend. The good news for the hosts is that Santiago Gimenez is back from suspension.
The Biancocelesti, on the other hand, have been in a fine form of late, with the team extending their winning run to three games in all competitions at Sassuolo. Feyenoord, though, have turned their De Kuip into a real fortress and given Gimenez’s return to the starting XI, we predict that the visitors are going to return to Rome with their hands empty. Maurizio Sarri should have a full squad to choose from.
Highlighted Player (Elseid Hysaj):
Born on 2nd February 1994, Elseid Hysaj is an Albanian defender who has spent his entire professional career in Italian Serie A and he is predicted a bright future in the game. Empoli scouts spotted his talent while he was playing for Shodra youth sides, and after three years in the youth team, the full-back was promoted to the first team set up.
Hysaj performed really well in his first three years as a first team regular, helping the Azzurri gain promotion to the top fight in the process. One season in Serie A proved enough for the right-sided defender to secure a big club move as he joined Napoli in the summer of 2015 and immediately nailed down a regular starting berth.
Capable of doing dirty defensive work as well as making forward runs, Hysaj is a modern full-back, who is destined for big things. The talented footballer is already a key member of the Albania national team and he will represent the country at the Euro 2016 finals.
Highlighted Team (Feyenoord):
Back in 1908 football club Wilhemina was founded in the pub De Vereeniging and they played their home games in blue-sleeved red shirts and white shorts. The club’s name was changed to Hillesluise in 1909 and soon they became RVV Celeritas.
Finally, in 1912 the club got a name SC Feijenoord. Feyenoord won their first Eredivisie trophy in 1924 and 75 years later they clinched their 14th domestic trophy, finishing the season 15 points clear of second-placed Willem II. De Trots van Zuid play their home games at De Kuip and the capacity of the venue is 51 117.
The club’s fiercest rivals are Ajax and the two teams face each other in der Klassieker. The likes of Craig Bellamy, Gerrard Fox, Wouter Bos and Raemon Sluiter are notable supporters of the club. It is well known that football legends Johan Cruyff, Ruud Gullit and Peter Houtman all played for Feyenoord in the past. De Trots van Zuid play their home games in red-white shirts and black shorts.
