This promises to be an action-packed encounter for Slovan Liberec at Stadion u Nisy when the Europa League tournament arrives in town and Gent with it. Read all about the Group Stage match here!
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
These teams have little in common geographically as Gent have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Slovan Liberec form and stats
Seven points from three Czech Liga home games is a great start for Slovan Liberec, who are hoping to build on that form here at Stadion u Nisy. 3W-0D-0L is the hard facts regardless of venue in the Europa League for Slovan Liberec.
Liberec's last game was hosting Pribram and winning 3-0. Previous to that game, a Europa League home match hosting APOEL in a game that was won 1-0.
What a game it was for Michal Rabusic when beating Pribram, applying the finishing touch to three goals!
The match schedule is unforgiving for Liberec as they have a new game in only three days, a Czech Liga match thankfully also at home. Jablonec are visiting.
Slovan Liberec are an "over 2,5 goals" team alone here at Stadion u Nisy in their league games, having scored an impressive 8 goals in 3 matches. Liberec are not conceding a lot of goals here at Stadion u Nisy in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 2 from 3 matches.
Gent form and stats
Gent's mission in Europa League last season failed in the 16th finals.The story so far for the visiting team on their Pro League travels is 1 win, 0 draws and 4 defeats.
There might be some fixture complaints from Gent as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Pro League match against Cercle Brugge (2-5). Prior to that match, a home win 5-1 against Beerschot-Wilrijk in the Pro League.
A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Gent, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?
A new game in only four days for Gent, the Pro League home match versus Genk. Busy days.
Gent have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 5 league away games 5 goals have been scored. The Gent manager W. De Decker has some worries about the defense as 10 goals have been conceded in these travels.
