Thun predict ‘Scottish blood’ in Switzerland as they reveal Hearts dangers

FC Thun head coach Gian-Luca Privitelli warned his team about Hearts' attacking threats ahead of their UEFA Conference League match at Visana Stadion. Privitelli singled out Claudio Braga, Josh McPake, and Sabah Kerjota as key dangers, noting that the Scottish side plays with high intensity and displays their "Scottish blood." Thun currently sit on zero points in the competition, while Hearts have earned one point from two matches.

Thun enter the fixture with several injuries of their own, including Fabio Saiz, Genis Montolio, and Mats Seiler, though Hearts are coping with 10 sidelined first-team players. Despite over 1,000 traveling Hearts supporters expected, Privitelli stated his squad is fully prepared after previously hosting boisterous crowds against Hajduk Split and Dinamo Zagreb.
