Prediction: 3-1
FCSB
After failing to win the previous four games in all competitions, Hoffenheim will look to give fans some cheer when they take on Steaua in the Europa League round 6. Hoffenheim are eyeing their only second win of the process and a triumph over FCSB should see them climb to top 24 in the standings. The home team’s injury list, though, is pretty long, including the likes of Bebou, Becker, Bulter, Grillitsch, Kabak, Lenz, Promel, and Tohumcu.
The Romanians, on the other hand, played out a goalless draw with Olympiacos in their last Europa League game, but seeing that they head into the match without a couple of important players, home win should be considered. South Africa defender Siyabonga Ngezana misses out with injury, while forward Daniel Birligea serves a one-game ban. Cameroon international Joyskim Dawa is widely expected to sneak into the starting XI.
Highlighted Player (Pavel Kaderabek):
Pavel Kaderabek is a Czech Republic defender born on 25 April 1992, who has enjoyed a bright start to his professional career. Coming through the youth ranks at Sparta Prague and gaining some first team experience during a loan spell with Viktoria Zizkov, the right-sided defender was finally able to show what he is capable of during the 2012/2013 season and he didn’t need a lot of time to make the next step in his career.
After scoring impressive 10 goals in 76 league appearances for Sparta Prague, Kaderabek joined Bundesliga side Hoffenheim in the summer of 2015, shortly after he had established himself as a starting right-back in the Czech Republic national team.
The talented footballer helped Repre make it to the Euro 2016 finals by starting 9 qualifying matches, once again proving his killer instinct by scoring two goals. Pavel Kaderabek looks set to become one of leading players of the new generation and a big club move may not be far away either.
