St Etienne got a 2:1 victory away in Israel in the first leg of the play-off round against Beitar Jerusalem and now awaits the re-match game much more relaxed and in a role of complete favorite of progressing to the group stage. However, the game didn’t start positively for them, since Vered brought the hosts into the lead in eight minute, but the French side reacted very well within next twenty minutes.
Lemoine leveled up the result in fifteenth minute, while the visitors took the lead with an own goal from Rueda in 30th minute for the final 2:1 victory. Till the end of the game, it was Beitar who had more of the ball possession, but the Frenchmen were those who had more chances created, obviously waiting them on counter attacks. St Etienne have started with a defeat in Ligue 1, suffering 3:2 loss away to Bordeaux, but the impression was that the team only started playing later in the game as they were 3:0 down in 72nd and then managed to reduce the deficit, making impression that they could have won in case the team played the whole game like they did in last twenty minutes.
In the second round, they easily defeated Montpellier at home 3:1 last weekend. Hosts miss forward Alexander Soderlund (1/0), midfielders Benjamin Corgnet, Bryan Dabo (0/0) and left back Cheikh M’Bengue (1/0) due injuries.
Beitar Jerusalem, on the other side, comes into this game from a season opening match in their domestic league when the team took a point in a 2:2 draw away from home against Maccabi Petah Tikva. They took the lead twice, via Cohen in 9th and Vered in 29th minute, but the hosts found the way to reply both times within ten minutes.
The team had some good displays this Summer during the qualifiers for the Europa League, since they excluded Bosnian side Sloboda, Cypriots from Omonia and Jelgava in the third round, reaching the play-off stage for Europa League for the first time in their history. Now, after the defeat in the first leg, things are very difficult for them, but at least removes the pressure from their shoulders and the team can play a bit more relaxed now.
Their manager has no serious problem for this match, while the team brought in offensive French players Johan Audel (known for his performances for Nantes in last three years) who could start tonight.
St Etienne can’t afford to rotate their squad a lot for this game, as they keep a low profile since their coach said the game remains close to 50-50 as for the progress to the group stage. If the hosts play anything close like they did in Israel, or last weekend against Montpellier, this should be their easy victory. Way easier than what they got away from home in the first game.
