For the 4th round of the Europa League, Eindhoven welcomes Zurich to the Phillips Stadion. The group is completed by Arsenal and Bodo Glimt, the first ranked continues in the Europa League, the 2nd plays a knockout match with the third from the Champions League while the 3rd continues in the Conference League.
Eindhoven's impressive performance last week away from home in Zurich, crushing the Swiss team 5-1. She entered the match furiously and destroyed her opponent in the first half with a characteristic that until the 21st minute she had scored 3 times and closed the half with an emphatic 4-0. In the second half he scored another goal in the 55th and then turned things around, with the home team scoring just before the final goal of the match.
So after 2 matches in the group it reached 4 points and of course she remains within the qualification zone, with another victory today she will take another step towards her goal.
Last Sunday, Heerenfen won the championship away from home with 1-0, a victory that kept them in 3rd place in the standings with 21 points, 2 less than the first Alkmaar.
He continues to disappoint Zurich in the group, the previous matchday saw the defeat at home by Eindhoven 5-1. As the final score shows, she couldn't look competitive and especially in the first half she suffered seeing the visitors reach very high score levels. In the replay, all he managed to do was score the consolation goal in the 87th minute.
Third defeat for Zurich in the group and now he is looking for a small miracle to continue on the European pitches in the winter.
But it also disappoints in the Swiss championship as after 10 matches it remains the only team in the league without a win and with a record of 4 draws and 6 defeats is in last place with 4 grades! And all this just 5 months after winning last year's title. The bad results were brought by the recent change in the technical leadership with Franco Fonda being a thing of the past and the Dane Bo Henriksen taking over in his place.
Eindhoven looks to be in good form of late and is coming off wins with good performances. Contrary to Zurich, which travels in European and domestic competitions and cannot raise its head, today, however, with a new coach, it will try to make a reaction. I think we will see a match similar to last week with many goals and spectacle.
