Europa League betting and spectator preview: Gent and Slovan Liberec meet at GHELAMCO-arena to measure strength and learn who makes it to the next stage.
Gent have less rest than Slovan Liberec in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Pro League game only four days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus Zulte-Waregem, was also a home game here at GHELAMCO-arena. The away team is better rested.
Slovan Liberec have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
