On Thursday, starting with 19:15, the Servette Geneva – Ruzomberok match will be played, within the Europa League preliminaries.
Servette Geneva was one of the surprises of the previous season in Switzerland. “Visninii” ranked 4th in the ranking with 49 points obtained – 2 more than Lugano. This was noted in the first throughout the season by a game both combinatorial and solid, with the Ivorian “craftsman” Kone in the lead role. Servette will certainly be a “hard nut” in the preliminary rounds, the individual value of the players recommending her to fight for the qualification in the competition groups. However, in the match against the Slovak team, it will start with a major handicap, the Swiss not yet playing any official match in this competition season.
On the other hand, Ruzomberok is a mid-table team in Slovakia. The conjuncture made it represent its country in the second European competition. This fact is supported by their course in the first rounds of the new competition season. The “white-blues” recorded 3 draws and a defeat in the first 4 stages. The winless run at the start of the season is certainly a moral minus. Ruzomberok, no victory in the previous 4 matches.
PREDICTION: Servette to win @ 1,48
