Go Ahead Eagles is waiting for a beautiful, heavy match in the Europa League against Aston Villa on Thursday evening. Coach Melvin Boel acknowledges that the differences between the two teams are large, but believes in a stunt against the subtopper from the Premier League. Eagles started their Europa League campaign with an unnecessary and expensive loss against FCSB. The Deventenaren had a very difficult time in the second round against Panathinaikos, but left Athens with a 1-2 win thanks to a double strike by Milan Smit. And so Boel's team is fully participating in the second club tournament in Europe, where opponents of size are participating. Boel knows that the teams are used to a completely different pace. The pace at which they run and sprint is something that the boys can only experience by playing against them. A major setback for Eagles is the fact that striker Victor Edvardsen is still injured. The Swede is still out of action for about four to six weeks, according to Boel. In addition to Edvardsen, Søren Tengstedt is also not participating. Yet Boel thinks that there are opportunities if the collective is good. As a team, you have to want to make dirty meters for each other, both forward and backward. Then there is always a chance, even if people think in advance that it is a small chance. This team can beat anyone, according to Boel. The preparations for the match against Aston Villa are in full swing. Boel has warned his team about the strong opponent. Aston Villa has a coach who takes the Europa League very seriously, and that can make a big difference. The match against Aston Villa will be played on Thursday evening at 21.00 hours. Go Ahead Eagles must give everything to achieve a good result. Boel's team has already shown that they can stun, and that must also happen against Aston Villa.
