Prediction: 2-1
Sturm Graz
After suffering a 4-2 loss to Lazio at Stadio Olimpico, Feyenoord will be aiming to record their first group win in the 2022/2023 Europa League campaign when they face Sturm Graz at De Kuip. Feyenoord proved their worth in the Rotterdam derby at the weekend, with the team rolling over Sparta 3-0, and, no doubt, the triumph helped them regain a much-needed confidence. Mexico international Santiago Gimenez, who scored a brace in Rome, is pushing for a start, while midfielder Sebastian Szymanski should miss out with injury.
The Austrian outfit, on the other hand, kicked off their Europa League campaign with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Midtjylland, but seeing that Feyenoord have turned their De Kuip into a real fortress, home win should be considered. To make things even worse for the visiting side, midfielder Stefan Hierlander is banned for Thursday’s clash.
