UEFA Europa League Group B1 Spotlight Match
, Scotland are at home to Ukraine. Scotland are in second place with six points from three wins, just one point behind Ukraine at the top of the table. Scotland can't afford to lose this crucial match for the promotion seat. However, both teams have core players injured before the match, which may affect the performance of the game, do not rule out a draw, betting on the number of goals under 2.5 goals may be more prudent. (Match will start at 2:45am on Thursday)
Scotland's captain Robson was unable to play due to injury, which had a huge impact on both the offense and defense of the team. Robertson's assists have always been the killer app of Scotland's offense, but now it seems to have cut off one of its own arms. Moreover, the Scottish players themselves are known for their "bad play", and although the defense is trying its best, the offense is seriously lacking in creativity, so it will be difficult for them to beat the resilient Ukraine.
Ukraine's central striker Sinzinko injured
Although Ukraine failed in the World Cup play-offs, the overall strength of the team is still strong, and only conceded 1 goal in three matches in this year's UEFA Europa League. The absence of central midfielder Sinchenko due to injury will weaken Ukraine's counter-attacking ability. They have scored less than 2 goals in three of their last four matches, and are expected to continue their defensive counter-attack strategy against Scotland, the strongest rival in the group, which will not result in too many goals, so it's safer to go for the smaller ones.
