Silkeborg vs. Jagiellonia Białystok. Danes fear Polish domination
— The first match on Thursday will be very difficult for Silkeborg, which will face Polish strength and likely domination from the first minutes, but the rematch could be a horror show in enemy territory — assessed the TV2 television channel.
Public broadcaster DR stated that Sunday's 0-1 defeat to Randers clearly showed that Silkeborg is going through a crisis and that the club will face a big test on Thursday against a strong Polish opponent.
Silkeborg defender Jens Martin Gammelby, who was on loan at Miedź Legnica in 2022, said the Polish league is at a very high level and Jagiellonia are a very tough opponent. "What I saw while playing in Poland made me realize that Polish football is clearly underrated in Denmark."
"Compared to us, Jagiellonia's players are true athletes. They run much more and faster, but Danish football is, in my opinion, tactically superior. I think our opponents will be pressing high from the start. That's why we focus on long balls and counterattacks, so we have to be very precise in our passes, but above all, keep a cool head," he told BT.
