Hacken vs Bayer Leverkusen team news
Hacken
This season in Europa League has been a rough one for Hacken since they've lost all four of their group games so far, most of them convincingly. Meanwhile, Hacken finished 3rd in Allsvenskan league, so they will get to play in Europe next season as well. When it comes to team news, Hacken is missing a lot of players, including Layouni, Totland, Ousou, Gustafson, Laursen, Fridriksson, and Trpcevski.
Predicted Lineup: Abrahamsson – Sandberg, Hovland, Hammar, Hodzic -Sa Gustafson, Rygaard, Romeo – Chilufya, Sonko, Hrstic
Bayer Leverkusen
Since the season started, Bayer Leverkusen have only failed to win once and they remain undefeated in all competitions. In Bundesliga they sit at the top 11 wins and a draw and they've already secured their place in Europa League 1/8-finals with four wins in a row. So, we might not see their best players against Hacken, especially since they have Dortmund waiting in Bundesliga this weekend. Also, Arthur, Fosu-Mensah, and Schick are out with injuries.
Predicted Lineup: Kovar – Stanisic, Tah, Hincapie – Tella, Xhaka, Grimaldo, Andrich – Wirtz, Adli – Boniface
Confirmed Hacken vs Bayer Leverkusen lineups will appear here around 60 minutes before kickoff.

Player to watch: Mikkel Rygaard
Ever since Traore left, Mikkel Rygaard has been the most important player for Hacken on the offensive end, ahead of their strikers even. After all, with 7 goals in Swedish league, he was the team's top scorer for the season and that's why we can see him doing well against Leverkusen.
