Austria vs Fenerbahce. Will the teams put on a fireworks display of goals?
On Thursday, August 18, in Vienna, Austria will play against Fenerbahce.
Last season, the Violets won the bronze medals of the Austrian Championship, well behind the second place, not to mention the first line. They have not played in the Europa League for three years, and in order to break into the group stage, they need to overcome only one stage - the play-off round.
In the domestic arena, Austria smashed the little-known Wels (7-0) in the first round of the Austrian Cup, but in the championship the start turned out to be a failure: only one victory in 4 rounds and 8 goals conceded.
Fenerbahce
Fenerbahce is the vece-champion of the last season of the Turkish Championship, and largely thanks to an unbeaten streak of 14 rounds in the end. Such success allowed him to play in the Champions League for the first time in the last 4 years, although Dynamo failed to pass (in the second qualifying round): 0-0 and 1-1 (0-1 in extra time). Once in the Europa League, the "yellow canaries" easily dealt with 1.FC Slovacko: 3-0 at home and 1-1 away.
The new season in the Turkish Super League started a week ago. Fenerbahce could not get three points, although he played at home against modest Umraniyespor: 3-3. We celebrate Valencia's double and Berisha's saved goal already in extra time.
