The New Saints vs Hacken Lineups, Team News, and Match Preview
The New Saints
TNS has won the Welsh title for a record 15 times and they are by far the best team that is coming out of the country in recent years. That fact, however, didn't put them in a position to challenge for qualification in some of Europe's competitions, and looking at a two-goal disadvantage ahead of the return leg, things are not looking bright.
Probable lineup: Roberts, Marriott, Pask, Astles, Davies, J. Williams, Smith, D. Williams, Redmond, Daniels, McManus.
Hacken
The one-time Swedish champions won their Allsvenskan league match over the weekend and are ready to compete for the next round of the Champions League qualifying section.
Probable lineup: Abrahamsson, Lund, Hovland, Sandberg, Fridriksson, Si. Gustafson, Rygaard, Sa. Gustafson, Sana, Traore, Sadiq.
Player to Watch: Benie Traore
The highly valued Hacken striker has been terrific this season with goals coming in from all over the place. He has been struggling with some personal issues lately, but things should be well for the return leg as many expect him to be ready for the big match. The 20-year-old striker has scored 12 league goals in 14 matches this season adding a couple of assists on the record.
This is his third year at Hacken after arriving from Ivory Coast and it shouldn't be too long before the Swedish champions receive a significant offer for his talent. Traore has scored a total of 24 goals in 57 appearances for Hacken and his goalscoring prowess could prove vital in their chances to see more of European football in the fall months.
