UEFA Europa League
Bayer Leverkusen vs Nice
12:55 ET
Quarter-finalist of the last edition of the UEFA Europa League, Bayer Leverkusen arrives hungry for revenge and with a clear objective: to improve and surprise in this new season to go further in the second most important club tournament in the Old Continent.
Nice from France, which has players like Dante and Morgan Schneiderlin, will be their rival this Thursday at the BayArena in Leverkusen for the first date of the European championship. Duel in which the Aspirins will not be able to count on their captain Charles Aránguiz. His manager, Peter Bosz, confirmed in the pre-match conference that the Prince suffered physical discomfort and is out this week.
One less for the Germans and who will seek their first home victory with their perhaps more complex opponent in Group C, the one they also share with Slavia Prague and Israel's Hapoel Be'er Sheva.
Bayer will go with their main figures in front, where the scorer position will be for Lucas Alario, since this season's star reinforcement Patrik Schick is also injured. In the Bundesliga they have not been very fine and despite being undefeated, they have only won one of four games.
