Fenerbahce Analysis
The home team makes its debut in this edition of the UEFA Europa League with the intention of achieving a positive result, taking advantage of the home factor. Curiously, this is a team that has been stronger away than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 11 wins and 4 draws in away matches; against 7 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses in their stadium. In their last match, for the Super Liga, they got an away win against Adana Demirspor by (0‑1). In the last 10 home matches Fenerbahce has a record of 7 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. The team has allowed goals to the opponent in 7 of the last 10 matches, so their defense needs to improve, but their offense has been scoring with great regularity, as they have always scored at least one goal in the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they managed to turn the score around in 3 of the 5 matches in which they conceded the first goal.
Fenerbahçe comes motivated for this match after a victory, by 0-1, in the trip to Demirspor’s ground, in a game counting for the Turkish championship: the only goal of the match was stamped by Mesut Özil. It should be noted that the home team reaches this stage of the Europa League after finishing in 3rd place in the 2020/2021 Turkish Championship. The club coached by Vítor Pereira usually acts in a 3-4-3 tactical system, favoring quick transitions, mainly through the wings. In this drawing, the three most advanced players are Mesut Özil, Mbwana Samatta and Irfan Can Kahveci, the second athlete mentioned being very powerful and competent in finishing. The home coach should be without Serdar Dursun, Enner Valencia and Mert Hakan Yandas because they are injured.
HJK Analysis

HJK comes motivated for this match after a 1-0 victory against Mariehamn, in a game counting for the Finnish championship: the only goal of the match was signed by Anthony Olusanya. Note that the visitors overcame Neftchi in the last round of the Europa League. The visiting team usually plays in a 3-4-3, favoring a more leisurely style of play, attacking through the center aisle. The three arrows aimed at the “enemy’s” goal will be Santeri Hostikka, Anthony Olusanya and Roope Riski, and the player responsible for defining and leading his team’s attacks is Filip Valencic. The visiting coach must have all the pieces available for this first hand.
