Tomorrow evening, on the neutral ground in Hungary, the Bergamaschi face the return leg of the competition’s playoffs against Hapoel Tel Aviv. «We want to play in a European competition. Hapoel is a determined team in great athletic condition – explains the Nerazzurri coach from the Dvtk Stadion in Miskolc -. The opponent defends well in the last thirty-forty meters of the pitch and knows how to counter-attack quickly. It won’t be easy».

In attack, Sarri is leaning towards confirming the trident with Zalewski and Raspadori. The doubts concern the central striker: «De Ketelaere has trained very little, he has just returned from an adductor problem, he comes from playing half an hour with Sassuolo. His use will necessarily be partial. We don’t know how long the match will last, so we will evaluate tomorrow – explains Sarri -. Scamacca and Krstovic are doing well, both are growing and during the season they will alternate based on their respective conditions. Then for some matches, we will set up a special team where they can play together».
