Munich and Brynäs IF are both safe in the knowledge that they’ve made the next round, and now just have to fight about who goes through as the group winner. A regulation win will give the Red Bulls that honour, while any other result means it’s still all to play for next week.
The Red Bulls go into the match off the back of a derby win over Augsburg. “The win gives us positive energy for the next games,” said forward Steve Pinizzotto. “For sure there are some things we need to do better, especially in our own zone.”
Brynäs IF have not had a good start to their domestic campaign, a narrow win over Orebro on the weekend was their first of the season in five attempts.
