Red Bull Salzburg are currently unbeaten in the league and will look to stretch that great run of form as they host Genk. The Belgian outfit are currently ninth in the Belgian Pro League and haven’t been on form and will hope to get back to winning ways against the Austrian team.
Salzburg are likely to miss Alexander Walke, Jasper van der Warff, Marin Pongracic as all of them are carrying injuries.
Genk will be without goalkeeper Danny Vukovic who is still injured. Mbwana Samatta may return aginst Salzburg with the forward missing the last game against Charlerloi due to knee problems. It may be a game where Neto Borges returns after his foot injury.
“We are ready for an intensive game. Our aim is very clear though – we want to win.
“Genk are in general a strong team that are very good in possession. We need to make our pressing count. We need to keep the game fast and intensive.”
“We are not among the favourite teams to do well in comparison with Liverpool, Napoli as well as Salzburg because they have vast experience in the competition.
“Regardless, we should not forget football has unpredictable results. For a long time, Genk has not played in the Champions League, as such, we will prepare ourselves well to stage a good resistance against the big teams in the group.”
This will be first game to have been ever played between the two sides and either team could be victorious in this fixture.
Red Bull Salzburg XI- Stankovic; Kristensen, Andre Ramalho, Vallci, Wober; Minamino, Bernede, Mwepu, Szoboszlai; Hwang Hee-Chan, Haaland
Genk XI – Coucke; De Norre, Lucumi, Uronen, Cuesta; Berge, Heynen; Ito, Hrosovsky, Bongonda; Samatta
