Pafos and Riga will face off on Matchday 2 in the Conference League at Alphamega Stadium on Thursday afternoon. Six combined goals were scored in these sides’ MD1 fixtures, and our prediction is that both teams will get on the scoresheet in this match.
Pafos’ Conference League campaign kicked off on a disappointing note, losing 3-1 to Atalanta. They only managed 35% possession and ended with 0.94 xG despite creating three big chances.
The Light Brigade then played to a goalless draw at home to APOEL at the weekend, which saw them slip to fifth in the Cypriot First Division. They have now won just one of their last four matches across all competitions.
Notably, owing to Stelios Kyriakides Stadium not meeting UEFA standards, Pafos will play their home games in this competition in Kolossi.
Meanwhile, Riga played out a 1-1 draw in their opening match of the UECL against Kairat Almaty, but they could have come away with all three points but for a Mohamed Badamosi missed penalty.
However, Badamosi made up for his miss at the weekend by scoring the winner against Super Nova in the Virsliga, a result that extended Zilibaltie’s unbeaten run to eight games in all competitions.
The visitors have won their last four competitive away games, while keeping clean sheets in three.

Our Pafos FC vs Riga FC Prediction
While Pafos were unable to match the class of Atalanta in their Conference League opener last week, they were decent in attack as they managed to create three big chances and recorded five shots on target.
Although Riga are on the road here, they have been in excellent form this season, entering this match unbeaten in their last eight in all competitions. This should be a close contest, and we fancy both sides to get on the scoresheet. Our Pafos vs Riga prediction is BTTS.
