- 15' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Youness Mokhtar made 262 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 20' Lennart Thy needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 25' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 30' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Tomislav Gomelt suffering a number of foals already.
