Expect Thun to line up in their usual 4-4-2, a shape that's served them well in their rise but looks fragile against quality. Privitelli will likely stick with the back four of Steffen, Hoyle, Balaruban, Bamert and Fer, with Matoshi and Reichmuth wide, and the central pairing of Zoukit and Roth — the latter stepping in for the injured Mattias Kait. Up top, Labo and Dursun will need to feed off scraps. The problem? A midfield two against Lech's 4-2-3-1 is a mismatch. The double pivot will be overrun, and the space between Thun's lines will be a playground for Lech's number ten.

Lech, under their current setup, will sit in that 4-2-3-1 and let Thun have the ball. They don't need to chase this tie — they're 3-2 up on aggregate, and away goals don't count double anymore, but they still hold the advantage. They'll be happy to absorb pressure and hit on the break, with Sayyadmanesh leading the line and the wide runners exploiting the channels. Their 5-0 win at Klaksvik showed they can be devastating in transition, and Thun's high line will be begging to be exposed. The Railwaymen are set-piece kings too, and with Alex Douglas and Ali Gholizadeh still sidelined, they've coped admirably — that depth is a sign of a squad built for this.
