Prediction: 2-1
Zorya
Leipzig play host to Zorya at their Red Bull Arena in the Europa League play-off, return leg. The Red Bulls failed to turn their dominance into goals in the goalless draw with the ten-man Ukrainian side and it has to be noted that the Germans had 30 goal attempts in the first leg. Leipzig, though, are still considered favourites to make it to the group stages of the competition and they are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach in Thursday’s football match. Leipzig are a real force to be reckoned with at home and despite the fact that Naby Keita joined Liverpool earlier this summer, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the hosts. A man to watch in the home team will be Timo Werner, who represented Germany at the 2018 FIFA World Cup finals in France.
