Betting on Ferencvárosi TC
Since the Hungarians are playing in front of its fans, it not only has a great desire, but also a pressing need to secure its passage to the next round of the UEFA Europa League. It is important to note that in the first leg, Russia’s Stanislav Cherchesov’s team played well, despite the result did not end as it expected.
Improving shots on goal and being a little more solid in defense are paramount aspects to take into account, if it wants to fight for a place in the quarterfinals. Locally, in the Nemzeti Bajnokság I, Ferencvárosi is the leader with 15 wins in 23 games. It lost its most recent match 2-1 against Puskás Akadémia.
However, in this new opportunity, the Green Eagles will surely try to claim the victory, as it counts on the security of Dénes Dibusz, the goalkeeper, who saved several goals in Germany. In its last two Europa League matches, Ferencvárosi lost and did not score a goal.
Possible lineup (4-5-1): Dénes Dibusz; Endre Botka, Mats Knoester, Leo Abena, Eldar Civic; Bálint Vécsei, Anderson Esiti, Adama Malouda Traoré, Kristoffer Zachariassen, Marquinhos; Ryan Mmaee.
Betting on Bayer 04 Leverkusen
Leverkusen played a great first leg, taking a two-goal lead. The scorers were Kerem Demirbay and Edmond Tapsoba. Still, everyone knows that 2-0 is the most misleading scoreline. That is why, Die Werkself should not go into this Ferencvárosi vs Bayer Leverkusen duel very confident.
Should it qualifies, this would be the second time in Leverkusen’s history that it has reached the Europa League quarterfinals. This Ferencvárosi vs Bayer Leverkusen is a great opportunity for the Germans to conquer something this season. This is so, because in the Bundesliga, its outlook is not very encouraging, as it is ninth in the standings, with 18 points behind the leaders.
Possible lineup (3-4-3): Lukás Hrádecky; Odilon Kossounou, Jonathan Tah, Edmond Tapsoba; Jeremie Frimpong, Kerem Demirbay, Piero Hincapié, Nadiem Amiri; Florian Wirtz, Moussa Diaby, Sardar Azmoun.
