Molde to seal a place in the knockout rounds of the Europa League

Molde to seal a place in the knockout rounds of the Europa League
2698

A few of the groups in the Europa League still have issues left undecided heading into matchday six. One of those is Group B, where Molde and Rapid Vienna are competing for a place in the knockout stages of the competition.

The pair go head-to-head on Thursday evening in the Austrian capital on the final matchday. The visitors only need a draw to go through, as they are three points ahead of their opponents, while also holding the advantage of a victory in the reverse fixture.

In truth, despite their struggles in the Premier League, Arsenal were always the favourites to win the group. The Gunners have done just that qualifying for the last-32 by winning all their group games thus far in Group B.

As also expected Rapid and Molde are battling it out for the second qualification spot, with Irish team Dundalk rock bottom having lost all five games so far.

When it comes to recent form Molde are favourites to come out on top. Since a 3-0 home defeat by Arsenal at the end of last month, the visitors have recorded three straight wins, scoring at least twice in each victory.

The Norwegian outfit has proven to be prolific of late, finding the net on two occasions or more in six of their last eight matches in all competitions. The two games in which they failed to find the net on more than one occasion was against Arsenal in this competition.

Rapid have enjoyed mixed fortunes of late, winning just two of their previous six matches in all competitions.

However, Didi Kuhbauer’s team are still just two points off the top of the Austrian Bundesliga table. However, their record of just six points from their five games in the Europa League this season is an underwhelming one.

Forebet predicts that Molde will record a narrow victory in a low-scoring game to book their place in the knockout stages of the Europa League.
