Apoel Nicosia vs Qarabag FK: Preview
Clashes between Champion of Cyprus (APOEL) and Champion of Azerbaijan (Qarabağ) will be held on August 6 at GSP Stadium. Qarabag FK has registered a 4-1 aggregate win against Dundalk in the UEFA Europa League 2 qualifying round. On the other hand, APOEL have secured their progress in the Champions League 3 qualifying round with a 4-0 aggregate victory over Sutjeska.
There is no doubt that the two teams are in very good condition before they will face each other in the UEFA Champions League 3 qualifying round 3.
It seems that APOEL will start the match as a favorite at this home match at GSP Stadium.
APOEL Nicosia vs Qarabag: Prediction
The home team have only lost once in their last ten matches at home, and have scored fourteen goals in the previous five matches.
Qarabag FK, on the other hand, has been held to a draw in their last two events. The visitors also won just twice in their last five trips on the road, which clearly showed that they had failed to ensure victory consistently on their way.
The home team's last clash at home also saw them lead 3-0. With the advantage of a safe home under their belts, APOEL Nicosia looks set to win against their enemies this week.
With just four goals in their last three matches, it must be said that the guests failed to make an impact in the third attack. In addition, APOEL Nicosia has kept clean sheets in four of their last five battles in this venue.
So the possibility of a low score clash with under 2.5 goals on a score card is definitely big.
