The away team, Cologne, has been in poor form lately. In their last six official games, they've only managed two wins, two draws, and two losses. Their away - game record is abysmal. In the last six away matches, they've drawn three and lost three, failing to secure a single victory. In fact, in the last ten away games, there have been as many as six draws, resulting in an extremely low win rate. There are obvious flaws in their defense. In the first - leg home game, they conceded three goals to the opponent. Although the team has some offensive firepower (averaging 1.6 goals per game in the last five official matches), the absence of their key striker, Cyril Dessers, has significantly weakened their attacking capabilities. Regarding the squad, the team is facing more severe injury problems. Besides Dessers, the defender Rafael Fernandes (injured), Dion Sterling (with a hamstring injury), and the forward Rabih Madonado (after knee surgery) are all out due to injuries, which has a huge

Hanover 96's 3-4-3 system places a high emphasis on the full-backs' ability to get up and down the pitch. They are expected to stretch the play in attack and quickly return to defend their own half. With players like Hugonet and Fukuda Shio out, the team has to turn to alternative options at the center-back and forward positions. The understanding and chemistry among these players need to be developed through actual matches. Playing at home, Hanover 96 has the conditions to dominate the game. However, they should not push forward recklessly. It's crucial to keep enough players at the back. They can create more threats in the opponent's box by taking advantage of second-phase attacks and set-pieces. If the midfield fails to make interceptions, the defense will have to deal directly with the opponent's attacks down the flanks. As the game progresses and the players' fitness levels decline, the probability of making mistakes will increase. Karlsruhe conceded a large number of goals in the

Frederikstad's 3-4-3 system heavily relies on the full-backs' back-and-forth runs, which are crucial for both offensive expansion and defensive cover. After several defenders were out, the team had to use substitutes at the center-back position. This led to insufficient on-field coordination among the players, thus reducing the margin for error in the defense. Playing at home, the team will aim to take the initiative. However, they shouldn't overcommit to the attack. It's necessary to keep enough players in the backline and create goal-scoring opportunities in the penalty area through second attacks and set-pieces. If the midfield fails to intercept, the defense will have to directly face the opponent's wing attacks. As players' stamina wanes, the likelihood of defensive mistakes increases. Bodø/Glimt has a clear offensive strategy. They use high - pressure pressing to force opponents into making mistakes when passing. Their wingers' movements create gaps in the opponents' flanks, and

Lyon's 4-3-3 system relies on the rotation of multiple midfielders to complete the ball transition. The full-backs and wingers cooperate with each other to create gaps in the opponent's defense. Although Lyon has the conditions to control the ball at home, it's not advisable to push forward without restraint. They need to keep enough players in the backcourt and use second attacks and set-pieces to create threats in the penalty area. If the midfield fails to intercept the ball, the defense will directly face the opponent's wing attacks. The psychological fluctuations when failing to score after a long time of attack can magnify the potential defensive mistakes. Oussel is currently in a tough spot, mainly due to issues in the back - line. Several key defenders are unavailable, forcing the team to cobble together a makeshift defense. It's difficult for the newly - formed backline to quickly develop the understanding needed for lateral movement and mutual cover. When playing away, Oussel
