The third match at Bismarckstraße in the 2021/22 season marks the start of this year’s Europa League campaign. The team under head coach Gerardo Seoane are looking to start with a win also because the club competition has undergong a number of fundamental changes to its format.

From this season, the winners of the group stage will directly qualify for the Round of 16 while the second-placed clubs in the groups will join with the third-placed clubs in the Champions League for an additional round to decide progress to the 16. “This change will have an influence over the course of the group stage,” said Seoane. “All in all, this reform will definitely increase the attraction of the competition.”

Here are the FAQs for the home game.

Moreira: Bayer 04 ‘a good place to grow as a player and as a person’

A new team, a new environment, a new challenge—and yet one thing remains the same for Afonso Moreira: his attitude. Total dedication, discipline, and the drive to improve every day have defined the Portuguese player since his early days at Sporting CP. “Even back then, I realized I had to work hard to achieve my goals,” said the 21-year-old. His parents also instilled those values in him from a young age. Values that have driven him ever since, accompanied him to France when he signed for Lyon, and now also form the foundation for his new chapter at Bayer 04. At a media session, the lightning-fast winger spoke about his values, as well as his new teammates, the new coach, and his targets at the club.
