Feyenoord Hoping to Build Lead Over Slavia Praha

4976

We have four matches to look forward to in the Europa Conference League on Thursday night including the meeting between Feyenoord and Slavia Praha. The first leg of the quarter final will take place at Stadion Feijenoord in Rotterdam, giving Feyenoord the home advantage.

Feyenoord come into the match having defeated Willem II 2-0 at home in the Eredivisie on the weekend. It took until the 67th minute for Feyenoord to open the scoring and they added a second goal in the final minutes of the game to seal maximum points.

It was an important victory for Feyenoord coming on the back of a 3-2 defeat to Ajax prior to the international break. The loss to Ajax ended any hope of Feyenoord winning the Dutch title this season and they are in a battle to finish in third place.

Looking at the Europa Conference League and Feyenoord are currently on a run of 8 games without defeat. They have won 6 of those matches, including home victories over Slavia Praha, Union Berlin, Elfsborg, and Maccabi Haifa. In fact, Feyenoord have won all 5 of their home Europa Conference League fixtures this season and will be confident of defeating Slavia Praha for a second time at Stadion Feijenoord.

Trends show Feyenoord have scored 2 or more goals in each of their 5 home Europa Conference League matches this season. Both teams have scored in each of their last 4 Europa Conference League games on home soil.

Slavia Praha make the trip to Rotterdam having been held to a 1-1 draw at Viktoria Plzen in the Czech First League on the weekend. Slavia Praha opened the scoring just after half time but conceded an equaliser with 15 minutes remaining on the clock.

That result means Slavia Praha have recorded just a single victory from their 4 most recent matches in all competitions. The win came over České Budějovice at home in the Czech First League but prior to that win there were defeats at Slovan Liberec in the Czech First League and at LASK in the Europa Conference League.

The 4-3 loss at LASK was the first defeat for Slavia Praha in 6 Europa Conference League games. They won each of their previous 3 matches, with the wins coming at home against Fenerbahce and LASK plus away to Fenerbahce.

Trends show Slavia Praha have won only 1 of their last 5 away Europa Conference League fixtures and have seen both teams score in 4 of those 5 games.

Team news and Feyenoord are without goalkeeper Justin Bijlow, who will not feature again this season due to a foot injury. There are also doubts over the fitness of Philippe Sandler, Lutsharel Geertruida, Lennard Hartjes, and Jens Toornstra.

Slavia Praha are without the suspended duo of Aiham Ousou and Srđan Plavšić. Petr Ševčík, Lukáš Masopust, and Ivan Schranz are all on the treatment table.

Feyenoord have already defeated Slavia Praha at home in the Europa League this season and we expect more of the same in this match. The Dutch club could score 2 or more goals on their way to victory in a match that could see both teams score.
