Going into Match Day 3 of the UEFA Europa League, Gent who are second in Group I, will be hosting group leaders Wolfsburg on Thursday. Both sides have four points and only a better goal difference places Wolfsburg on top. After opening with home wins, both sides drew away from home and Gent will be hoping to reap on their home advantage here. Gent have won each of their 10 home matches this season across all competitions. They have five clean sheets in the 10 home games and have scored two or more in each. Gent started from the Europa League qualifiers and have played eight games so far in the competition. They have only lost once in the eight and ahead of this game, they are unbeaten in six. However, they have just one clean sheet in the six, though they have scored in each of the last eight. At home, in Europa League, Gent are unbeaten in their last seven, winning five. This season, they have played four Europa League matches at home and won all. In each of the four, they have scored two or more and they have all ended in over 2.5 goals.

Wolfsburg, on their part, head to this game on the back of a draw with Leipzig back in the Bundesliga. They have not lost any of their 11 matches so far this season, but five have ended in draws. Three of their last four away matches have also ended in draws. Wolfsburg have scored in each of their matches this season. They are making a return to the Europa League after four years out. They have four goals in the opening two Europa League matches and will be hoping to pick their first clean sheet in this match. In 2016, these two sides met in the Champions League and Wolfsburg won both legs, 1-0 and 3-2.
