AEK Larnaca will welcome NK Celje this week for the second-leg showdown of their UEFA Europa League second-round qualifier. The tie is balanced at 1-1 following the first leg meeting in Celje. Read on for our prediction of the match.
AEK Larnaca secured the advantage in the first leg by avoiding defeat away. Imanol Idiakez’s men were very much second fiddle in Celje despite having more of the ball. They managed just three attempts in the entire match, with Hrvoje Milicevic’s second-half goal their only attempt on target.
Apart from securing a draw for the Cyprian outfit, Milicevic’s goal also continued Larnaca’s strong form in front of goal in Europe this season. The Guardians, who eliminated Partizan in the first round, have scored in all three of their fixtures.
NK Celje have fared even better than Larnaca in front of goal. They have been one of the most potent teams in these qualifiers and so far have scored seven goals in three outings.
Albert Riera’s men, though showing weaknesses in defence, managed six goals against Azerbaijan’s Sabah in the first round. Franko Kovacevic, who scored to open the scoring in the first leg against Larnaca, is already on four goals in these qualifiers.
Celje are yet to lose this season and followed up last week’s result with a 2-0 success over Radomlje in the Slovenian league last weekend.
