Prediction: 3-1
Austria Vienna
Villarreal and Austria Wien face each other at Estadi Ciutat de Valencia in a David-vs-Goliath Conference League clash. The Yellow Submarine aim to keep their 100% record intact, and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-minded approach in Thursday’s showdown. Both Danjuma and Chukwueze are pushing for recalls to the starting XI after the duo came from the bench in a goalless draw with Cadiz, while all Foyth, Alberto Moreno, Gerard Moreno, Reina, and Trigueros have been struggling with injuries of late.
The Violets, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-1 loss to Lech Poznan, which is probably the main reason why we are going to put our money on Villarreal. All Baltaxa, El Sheiwi, Handl, Martins, Raguz, and Wustinger are likely to miss the game with injuries for the Austrian side.
