Here is the third match day in Uefa Europa League. Romanian side Steaua will welcome Turkish side Fenerbahce. The home team started off with two goalless draws against Sheriff at home and Twente on the road. The away side had to face a shock defeat against Twente in the firsy match day; but then they managed to defeat Sheriff with a narrow victory on the road. On the paper, it looks like an equal game; but there are some news which makes the home side favourite of the game. First of all, Fenerbahce had to end their winning streak against Gaziantep on the road although they have took the lead. They had many important missings in that game. Coach Christoph Daum will miss some important players again. Captain Alex De Souza, Deivid De Souza and Daniel Güiza will not be able to play on thursday due to their injuries. Everbody knows the importance of Alex De Souza for the offence plans of Fenerbahce. He has scored seen goals and recorded many assists until now. Spanish national has also scored six goals so far this season. They have also a derby game agaist eternal rival Galatasaray at the weekend. They have Diego Lugano who has a slight injury. That is why they do not want to risk him. Ozer Hurmaci and Emre Belozoglu have been injured in the last training; but they should be ok for the match.
When we consider about the team news of the away side, I do not believe that they can win on the road. It is also very difficult to score for them. I believe that Steaua will not lose the game at least. Steaua (dnb) looks perfect.
