Zorya midfielder Vyacheslav Churko shared his thoughts on the Luhansk club's participation in the group stage of the Conference League.
"I can't say that our group has top clubs. I consider Gent to be the favourite of the group. We host them in the first match and are already slowly preparing for them, studying their tactics. We can assume that they will let us play football and play themselves.
There will definitely be no easy matches. Icelandic Breidablick could be a surprise. You might have to be patient with them somewhere. Fighting qualities may come to the fore. Plus, we play the second leg away from home, the climate may play a role, and we will have a tough road ahead of us.
The most important thing for us, in nominally home matches, is to try to squeeze out the maximum. And strive to get out of the group. This is our task," Churko said in a commentary to UPL TV.
