Hajduk head coach Joan Carrillo and the player Ante Erceg are both full of confidence and optimism and today they announced the Europa League Playoff second - leg match at the press conference. Tomorrow, Hajduk is playing against Everton FC at Poljud, kick - off 21:00.

"We knew from before that Marko Futacs can't play and now Franck Ohandza has to pause for two weeks. Borja Lopez is on the verge of fully recovering, we'll see what the doctors say. The plan is to be smart in the game and find the balance between defense and attack. Of course it would be good to score a goal in the first half, but the most important thing to stay smart, and when the goals will be scored is then not important at all, it is only important that we score" said Carrillo at the beginning of the pre-match press conference and continued:

"We got a message from our supporters since the stadium was sold out long ago, 35,000 fans are coming, which means that they believe in us and I hope we will have our celebration tomorrow" concluded Carrillo.

"We will also give 120% to try to score as early as possible with the help of our supporters, and then go for all or nothing. Why not be optimistic? The atmosphere in the club is great, and we are all optimistic ahead of the second - leg match against Everton" said Erceg, recently awarded by Torcida Heart of Hajduk award for the last season.
