The Europa League returns to the forefront tonight where we still have the return from the round of 16.
Wolfsburg goes to Kiev where he will face the champion of Ukraine, Sahtior, from 19:55.
Sahtior
Great joy in Sahtior’s camp after winning the 4th title, an extremely important achievement for the oranges who stepped in this season, with a difference of 23 points compared to second place.
The return from the pandemic was an electrifying one for Sahtior who was seen in the game extremely active, very offensive, and efficient at the end, causing a match-by-match show.
The last official match dates from July 19, but recently on the 29th they played a friendly against Veres-Rivne, won 2-0, where coach Luis Castro stated that from now on they are thinking about the match with Wolfsburg. Advantage for the Ukrainians in this confrontation after the victory in Germany but not enough considering the opponent they meet.
The only absence from the hosts is Ismaily, but an extremely important one that will matter a lot for the Ukrainian champion.
Wolfsburg
WolfsburgThe German team has settled with the Bundesliga since the end of June where it played the last stage of this season.
The white-greens led from the edge by Glasner managed to finish the championship on the 7th place with 49 points, thus catching the last position for the UEL qualifications.
Quite oscillating performances for the white-green team that had a lot to suffer in the defensive chapter, where it conceded a goal in almost all the matches since returning from the pandemic, and in some of them it exceeded 2 goals.
The offensive instead felt especially away where it seems that Wolfsburg is feeling very well.
Unfortunately, a failure on their own arena against the Ukrainians, so they start with a second chance, but Oliver Glasner is satisfied with the performance of his students in the friendly played recently against Leipzig, which ended with the score of 1-1.
Many absent for the German team that will not be able to rely on Otavio, Wiliam, Mehmedi and Camacho, all being injured, and Mbabu is in quarantine.
⚽️Direct meetings
In the round match at the Volfswagen Arena, the Germans failed to rise to the level of the game played by the champion of Ukraine, thus losing the match with the score of 1-2, after Weghorst and Kovalenko missed a penalty in the first half.
⚽️Sahtior vs Wolfsburg team likely
Sahtior (4-3-3): Pyatov – Dodo, Kryvtsov, Bondar, Matviyenko – Marcos Antonio, Stepanenko, Alan Patrick – Marlos, Junior Moraes, Taison
Wolfsburg (4-3-3): Casteels – Steffen , Knoche, Brooks, Gerhardt – Guilavogui, Arnold, Schlager – Ginczek, Weghorst, Brekalo
Football Prediction of the Day Sahtior vs Wolfsburg
After this competitive break we will see what stage the two teams are in, but I am sure that when you face a German team that has nothing to lose, you bet with great confidence on goals.
Sahtior is aware that he has a minimal advantage tonight, and with a German team on a big day he can have big problems at least on the defensive phase where he did not shine in the championship final.
Wolfsburg go to Kiev to make a proper reply, and even with so many injured, Weghorst & Co are ready to offer a football at least at the offensive quality shown after the pandemic in the Bundesliga.
So, I go hand in hand with a result of over 2.5 goals tonight with aside the experience and offensive efficiency of the hosts, but also the German ambition that can be seen as a real “cannon” in Kiev.
Bet Tips: Over 2.5 goals
Odds: 1.70
