FK Zorya Luhansk vs Maccabi Tel Aviv Prediction & Tips
Zorya and Maccabi Tel Aviv meet at the Slavutych-Arena in Zaporozh’ye in the fourth round of the Europa Conference League group stage.
Although the head-to-head record is non-existent, it’s not difficult to favor the away team, as they have a better squad.
Zorya go into this match on the back of a 2-2 draw away to Veres Rivne. Like their opponents in this match, the home side will be playing a 4-3-3 tactical system, with the aim of taking advantage of counter-attacks. In this design, the three men who will line up in the most advanced part of the pitch will be Igor Kyryukhantsev, Eduardo Guerrero and Igor Gorbach. In any case, it’s expected that Zorya will adopt a more defensive strategy in order to avoid Maccabi Tel Aviv’s goal as much as possible. The home coach won’t be able to count on Maksym Smiyan, Roman Vantukh and Dmytro Matsapura as they are all on medical leave at this stage.
Maccabi come into this game demotivated after a 2-0 defeat away to Gent. The away side usually play in a traditional 4-3-3 formation, favoring quick transitions and attacks through the wings. In this formation, the three men furthest forward will be Milson, Eran Zahavi and Dan Biton. Joris van Overeem, Gabi Kanichowsky and Dor Peretz could feature in midfield. Coach Robbie Keane won’t be able to count on Kiko Bondoso and Or Yitzhak because they are currently recovering from injuries.
