Dick Advocaat has chance to bring closer football which he seeks for when playing against Grasshoppers.
Fenerbahce will be coming out to the Europa League play-off round 2nd leg game against Swiss club Grasshoppers with a 3:0 advantage from 1st game at the Istanbul. Therefore, with gaining such a comfortable advantage Fenerbahce would provide very calm football.
In fact, team which needs to find solutions for the ticket to the group stage of tournament should be Grasshoppers which could lead them playing a very risky football especially from beginning of the game. Taking account that Istanbul side by quality is much stronger team compare to Swiss side, it should be able to use this to its advantage. This is also chance by Fenerbahce head coach Dick Advocaat to raise mood of its players after loss of Basaksehirspor at opening week of the Super League and more clearly make it clear what game he wants to his players. In addition, its chance to know even more capabilities of his side without having too much risk taken if things dont go as planned in game. In fact, Advocaat can afford some risk in sense of style of play as long as it wont bring tragic results.
This game as been stated is more important for Fenerbahce in sense of motivation and getting closer to the game-play which Dick Advocaat seeks for and it might have some positive outcomes for Kayserispor game at Super League 2nd week game on 28th August.
Osmanlispor needs to give its focus into defence against Mitdylland.
Following 1st leg game against Midtylland where it has won game with 1:0 scoreline in Denmark it does look that Osmanlispor have good chance to get into the group stage however it does need to be careful as Mitdyland which is more experienced at this front will provide some good and attacking style football.
Most important thing at this game would surely play defensive play of the Osmanlispor as it would need to provide good football and not make sure that it will not conceding goals back to back. It would be good boost during the game also to score goals, which can happen with a support of fans, but leading with 1:0 game from 1st leg does make it clear that not conceding is more crucial taking possibility of away goal if it concedes more than once. However, Osmanlispor has recieved great motivation from Europa League qualifiers and it is certain that side would give all attention towards the game which would motivate them as game progresses and reducing chances of making needless mistakes during the game. Surely, Osmanlispor supporters would also provide extra push to the team with their support.
The key as been mentioned is to stay focussed and use the advantage of that goal which been scored in Denmark last week for themselves.
Basaksehirspor has chance to beat Shakhtar Donetsk but it is slim.
Basaksehirspor as been mentioned from time when draw was made is that it has very tough opponent and now it has even more tougher job as it has lost 1st leg game with 2:1 scoreline in Istanbul.
However, there is still hope as two goals by Basaksehirspor could give them chance to get to Europa League group stage as long as their dont concede.
However, playing at the Ukraine where Shakhtar Donetsk would recieve strong support from Lviv-based fans could be a very difficult task which needs to be said has been experienced by Fenerbahce last year. Basaksehirspor to some extend, at least with their announcements, are not also sure with their luck stating their are only getting into game to get some experience. In other words, it does look like Basaksehirspor would try to get needed result but will not be dissapointed if their will not succeed it as long as their is good game. Saying that, if their do try very hard as their did in 1st leg in fact it should keep everyone happy as for sure Shakhtar was coming out as strong favourite when comparing both sides. Its just need to stay focus and give it best football, and things might turn better than thought.
Basaksehirspor task is hard but not impossible so it does have chance to bring surprise result, which could be talked about on Friday around whole Europe also.
