Hapoel Beer Sheva hosts Feyenoord in the second leg of the Europa League qualification finals. The match will be played on Thursday, August 29th at Toto Turner Stadium (Beer Sheva)
In the 1st match of this confrontation, Hapoel was mercilessly beaten in Rotterdam (0-3). The level of the Israeli team is much lower than that of the Dutch as a whole. The defensive line lacked qualification to withstand the powerful pressure of the attacking line of the Dutch. In the 1st match, Fer was on a roll and scored a double. At the same time, the defenders of the hosts allowed the visitors to deliver only 2 hits on their target. In other respects, Botteghin, Ie, Haps, and Karsdorp played accurately. Nevertheless, one should not think that the Israelis won’t even try to win back in such a difficult situation.

Will we see a rotation of the squad on the part of Feyenoord’s coach Jaap Stam? It will surely take place, but most likely not significant. Perhaps he will replace one of the main forwards. (Larsson or Narsingh) will give a chance to smell the powder of European cups to the same 18-year-old Burger and Sünster, who is 2 years older than his colleague is. Maybe there will be some other changes. But in general, the squad will be as close as possible to the regular one.
So, the goal (or goals) performed by the Dutch are likely to happen again because the probable appearance of reservists in the lineup will bring some brightness in the game. They will prove to the coach that they deserve more of his attention than they have now. Plus, the hosts have nothing to lose. It is necessary to score if they want to have at least the theoretical chances of success. And it means that there will be no fewer free zones in their rear areas than in the first match. At the same time, the hosts will be more persistent in attack than in Holland. And they will surely manage to please their fans with a goal or even more.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored
