AEK Larnaca will conclude their UEFA Conference League opening round phase by hosting Shkendija. The two teams harbor hopes of qualifying for the knockout rounds. Read on for our prediction of the match.
AEK Larnaca are seeking to qualify for the next round without needing to play a two-legged playoff. The Cypriot giants currently occupy 10th place in the standings and are tied with four other teams on nine points.
Imanol Idiakez’s men, who are yet to lose any of their five fixtures, need to finish among the top eight teams to qualify directly. The Guardians, who are just a point outside the top eight, drew 1-1 away to Hacken on matchday five.
Shkendija’s chances of qualifying for the round of 16 directly are a bit complicated. The Macedonian side, which is 21st in the standings coming into this game, is three points adrift of the top eight.
Therefore, a win here doesn’t guarantee a top-eight finish; it, however, will confirm a two-legged playoff tie. Shkendija have won twice through five rounds and lost another two times.
Tied with four other teams on seven points, the Ballists are just one point separated from the teams outside the playoff bracket.
Shkendija have won their last three fixtures across all competitions and defeated Slovan Bratislava 2-0 at home on matchday five.
