After five months of no Europa League football, it sets to come alive at the VELTINS ARENA. This will see a high flying side take on Getafe on the last 16 of the Europa League. The match schedules for Wednesday with kickoff at 7 pm.
The clash between the two sides will be on neutral grounds in Gelsenkirchen. This follows after their first encounter between the two sides was called off due to the coronavirus pandemic that struck the world.
The match will be waited for with bate breaths betweens sides Rangers and Bayer Leverkusen for the quarter-finals opponents. The winner of the match will take on either of the sides in the next three weeks.
Inter head into the clash with Coach Antoni Conte with heavy doubts over his future at the club. Reports emanating from Italy suggest Conte might have served his last term. This comes as a surprise as the Black and Blue finished strongly with second place and one point behind Serie A champions, Juventus.
The winner takes all in the last 16 of the Europa will push Jose Bordalas to reform his side for the championship. Bordalas threw a chance to make it to the Europa League this season, finishing eighth in the La Liga. The out-of-form side poses a threat against a high scoring Inter side this Wednesday.
