Last Game: Trabzonspor 1-0 Ferencvaros
Thursday, November 3 at 5.45pm in Europa League

We said: Bayer Leverkusen 3-1 Ferencvaros

Having significantly improved throughout Alonso's tenure, Leverkusen should have too much quality for their opponents on Thursday. However, the Hungarian champions are likely to battle hard and will retain a threat in transition with the quality of Adama Traore and Tokmac Nguen, so it would be little surprise if they score to keep the tie alive ahead of the return leg in Budapest next week.
