Team News

Ferencvaros
Viktoria Plzen
  • Robbie Keane takes charge of his third Europa League game and the Ferencvaros boss may go for a 4-2-3-1 setup here.
  • Adam Varga will start between the sticks in the absence of Denes Dibusz, who is the home side's only concern.
  • Julio Romao, who joined from Qarabag earlier this month, may start in the middle of the park.
  • Daniel Vasulin is suspended for Viktoria Plzen, though wouldn't have started in midweek anyway.
  • Cheick Souare will be assessed, but Christophe Kabongo misses out due to injury.
  • The visitors should go with a 3-5-2 system for the game at Ferencvaros to pack the midfield in their bid to claim a first leg result.

Prediction

  • Robbie Keane took over the Ferencvaros reins last month but hasn't made an inspiring start to life in Hungary having overseen just one win in their opening five matches. Even so, the Hungarian side are unbeaten in eight at home and have lost just once at the Groupama Arena this season.
  • Viktoria Plzen responded to back-to-back defeats with a 3-2 win over Slovan Liberec at the weekend. The Czech outfit have lost their last two away games, though did claim a positive result in three of their four away Europa League league phase games.
  • This could be a tightly fought encounter, with the spoils potentially shared in Hungary on Thursday.
