On Thursday night, Slavia Prague and Feyenoord clash in the Europa Conference League quarter-final second leg. The tie is delicately balanced after a 3-3 draw in the first leg in Rotterdam, so it’s all to play for in this clash.
Slavia Prague goes into this big clash on the hunt for numerous trophies, as the Czech team is currently top of their domestic table and in the fight for the title. It is a tight race and this game could prove to be a pleasant distraction from the fight for domestic dominance.

The Europa Conference League is the third European competition Slavia has appeared in this season. They lost in the third qualifying round in the Champions League before suffering an exit from the Europa League at the play-off stage.
Despite their presence in the last four of the Europa Conference League, the team from Czechia have won just four of their last ten matches in the competition.
Feyenoord are third-place in the Eredivisie and has a major task on their hands to catch second-place PSV to claim a spot in the Champions League qualifiers for next season.
However, Arne Slot’s team has been in decent form of late, as they are unbeaten in three games in all competitions, having also scored at least two goals in their last seven competitive matches.
The visitors have a strong recent record in the Europa Conference League, as they head into this clash on the back of a nine-game unbeaten run in the competition, having recorded six wins in the process.
The Dutch side has also proven to be potent in the competition, scoring at least two goals in each of their last eight games in the Europa Conference League.
Forebet predicts that this clash will produce a high-scoring draw, with the tie decided in extra time and maybe even by a penalty shootout.
