Wolfsburg – Desna
Thursday, September 24 9:15 p.m. Wolfsburg, Volkswagen Arena. Referee – Lawrence Visser (Belgium). Live broadcast on the Football 1 television channel
On Thursday night Desna will join the list of teams that have represented Ukraine in European competition and will naturally do her best to continue playing in the Europa League.
It is no secret that Desna is the “loser” in the clash with the Bundesliga representative, but this does not at all mean that the Alexander Ryabokon charges have no chance of defeating Wolfsburg.
Quite the contrary. The “wolves” will probably act like the first number, but everyone knows Desna’s ability to defend herself and attack with force. The main thing is not to exhaust yourself psychologically before the game.
Wolfsburg and Desna have the same amount of official game practice this season.
The hosts defeated Union Fürstenwalde (4: 1) in the German Cup, defeated Kukesi in the Europa League (4: 0) and broke with Bayer in the Bundesliga (0: 0).
Desna played all three UPL championship games: victory over Zorya (3: 1) and draws with Dynamo (0: 0) and Ingulets (1: 1).
By the way, in the duel against the debutant of the Premier League, the coaching staff made a significant rotation of the squad, so that the key players could rest before leaving for Germany.
As part of Wolfsburg, Pongracic, Mbabu and William will definitely not play (in the words of the coach). Desna, on the eve, lost striker Filippov, who moved to Saint-Truiden, and Mudrik Ryabokon decided to go home.
Interesting data
– Desna will make her debut in European club tournaments.
– Wolfsburg met Ukrainian teams twice and both times in the 2019/20 season: 2 wins (Oleksandriya, 3: 1 and 1: 0) and 2 losses (Shakhtar, 1: 2 and 0: 3).
– Wolfsburg have won 8 of the last 10 UEFA European Cup matches at home (2 losses: 1: 2 to Shakhtar and 1: 3 to Ghent).
– Wolfsburg have scored in their last 13 European home games.
