It is possible that we will observe the home team preferring a tactical scheme in 4-4-2, where the two most advanced players are Alexander Sorloth and Takefusa Kubo. Although it is a team that likes to huddle and defend in its midfield, it can also come out very easily on the counter-attack. Coach Imanol Alguacil will not be able to count on Momo Cho, Umar Sadiq, Martín Merquelanz, Ander Barrenetxea and Álex Sola because they are recovering from injury.
