Astana:
FK Astana have qualified for the UEFA Champions League with the fourth consecutive championship. However, came here in the qualifying phase the end against Dinamo Zagreb. After a 0-2 home defeat and a 0: 1 in Zagreb, it is now in the Europa League on. In the play-offs they prevailed against APOEL Nicosia from Cyprus. In the first group match, the team of coach Stanimir Stoilov then had to compete at Dynamo Kiev. It looked like they were on the losing track for a long time, but they could take home a point by scoring in the fifth minute of stoppage time. In the battle for the championship they were able to save a point ahead of Qairat Almaty last year and win the league title.
This season, too, it looks very good again. Six games to go, they are seven points ahead of their closest rival. The Kazakhs have been unbeaten in all competitions for seven games. Their last defeat came on Cyprus when they lost to Nicosia 1-0. Center-back Shtkin, who missed out on Kiev, is the best striker in the Kazakhs with ten goals. With Laszlo Kleinheisler they have a player under contract who has stoked the shoes for Darmstadt 98 and Werder Bremen and should be known to some readers.
Rennes:
In Rennes, they should not be very happy with the progress of the season so far. Having finished fifth in the final round last season, the men from Brittany are currently only in 16th place in the Ligue 1 table. With eight points on the account, they have only two points ahead of the relegation places. This is due to a series of four games without a win. After defeats in Nice (1: 2), against the big PSG (1: 3) and SC Amiens (1: 2) was at least one point in the last weekend in the 1-1 secured against Toulouse. The team of coach Sabri Lamouchi played here the entire second half in excess as Leya was put off in the 43rd minute due to an unsportsmanlike attitude.
However, after Niang’s penalty by penalty, they were unable to save that lead over time. Two minutes before the final whistle, the guests achieved the much acclaimed equalizer. Much more successful was the start in the Europa League. Against the Czech representative FK Jablonec a 2: 1 victory could be started at the start of the group stage. Senegalese striker Ismaila Sarr put the Reds in the lead in the first half. After the interim equalizer Ben Arfa scored in extra time by a penalty kick the winning goal. A reunion will take place with former Stade Rennes player Pedro Henrique, who is now strangling his shoes for Astana.
