Our prediction for this Europa League match:
Maccabi Tel Aviv will be looking to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Ferencvaros when they welcome Radnicki Nis at their Winner Stadium in the Europa League second qualifying round, first leg. The yellow-blues recorded only one win in previous five home games in the Europa League, but they do not face a difficult task in Thursday’s football match against the Serbian side. Radnicki Nis did roll over Gzira United of Malta, but seeing that the lack of experience in European competitions is likely to prove to be a big problem for the visitors, we are tempted to put our money on the hosts. Eliran Atar, who scored the winner against Ferencvaros, is likely to pose a big threat for the opposition defenders. Speaking of Radnicki Nis, a man to watch in the away team will be Nermin Haskic, who produced a fine display in the two-legged tie against Maccabi Tel Aviv.
