Espanyol vs FK Zorya Luhansk Prediction & Betting tips
In order to continue demonstrating why it is one of the favorites to say present in the UEFA Europa League group stage, this Thursday the Spanish cast of Espanyol jumps to the RCDE Stadium gramado in Cornella de Llobregat, to receive the visit of the Ukrainian cast Zorya, in play that corresponds to the first leg of the UEFA Europa League playoff round.
Espanyol:
Those led by David Gallego have been making a good presentation in this UEFA Europa League qualifying stage where they have won their four games, first to Stjarnan of Iceland with a 7-1 overall and now last to Luzern of Switzerland with a global 6 -0.
Unfortunately at the start of the League things were not positive and ended up falling in this scenario 0-2 against Sevilla, but anyway, this Thursday he hopes to meet again with the victory and thus return to a group stage of the UEFA Europa League, remembering that his last appearance in this competition in 2006/07 reached the final losing the penalty title against Sevilla, after the game will end up matched to two goals.
Zorya :
On the other hand, those led by Viktor Skripnik did not turn things out last weekend and so they lost at home 1-2 to Oleksandria at stake for the Ukrainian Premier League and with it while still in second place, now the difference with leader Shakhtar Donetsk is five points.
But anyway, now is the time to focus on his participation in the previous phase of the UEFA Europa League where he has not lost any of his four games with three of them ending in victories.
So he left Buducnost of Montenegro on his way and now CSKA Sofia of Bulgaria last. It must be said that the participation of the Ukrainian cast in this competition has been interesting, to the point that in the previous edition 2018/19 they came to this instance being eliminated by RB Leipzig of Germany after losing in Germany by 3-2, in what It has been his only defeat in his last eight games of this competition, and he expects the situation to be different this season and thus get into a group stage something that he has not achieved since the 2017/18 edition.
