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.”
