Swiss side Servette take on Viktoria Plzen in Lancy. The first leg was dominated by Viktoria Plzen having 62% possession, 2.01 XG and 9 shots on target. However, the scoreline after the match was 1-0 to the Swiss side. Joël Mall was the hero for the Swiss side making six crucial saves. The Swiss should count themselves lucky as the game could have taken a very bad turn had the Czech side been more clinical.
Team News
Rafiu Durosinmi is set to take Ghanian striker Prince Adu’s spot up top. Thomas Häberli will most likely opt for a 4-2-3-1 setup and Miroslav Koubek using a 3-4-2-1 setup but could switch to a more stable system with 3 midfielders and 2 wingers with Rafiu up top due to their inefficiency in the last leg.
Head-to-Head
The current head to head record for the teams is – 1 win for Servette and 2 draws between them.
Where the game will be decided
The game is set to be very tight and cagey, Servette came away with a great result and could sit back and defend that goal advantage given how dominant Viktoria Plzen were. Viktoria on the other hand could win this if they are able to break the great defence by the Swiss.
Prediction
This will be a tough one to call as both teams could win this tie and advance. It will be down to fine margins.
Servette 0-0 Viktoria Plzen
