PREDICTIONS AND ANALYSES
The visitors have gathered 63 points after 19 wins, 6 draws and 3 losses. Also, they have scored 55 while conceding just 16. On the other hand, the home team have 57 points to show for an effort that resulted in 18 victories, 3 ties and 7 defeats. While they have scored as many goals as their opponents, they have conceded 8 more. So, in order to overtake the opposition, they have to win by 2 goals difference (to compensate for the loss by 1-0 at the first leg) and try to score 9 more goals than whatever APOEL score from now on until the end. Surely, a rather steep mountain to climb.Â
APOEL were the champions for seven consecutive leagues before the competition got interrupted by the COVID-19 situation. Since then, all three titles have gone to other clubs. Namely, Omonoia, Apollon Limassol and Aris Limassol. If they manage to either win, or draw, this one then it’s almost certain that the title for 2024 will be theirs once more. And that’s quite a strong incentive.

Markets and odds that make sense
All odds for 1X2 are quite good. @2.350 for an Aris win, @3.070 for an APOEL win, @3.280 for a draw. The history between the two sides says 2 goals or less in the matches between them, therefore the offer of @1.781 for under 2.25 is rather low. Typically, we would go for the home field advantage and the fact that the hosts are the defending champions. However, we believe that the motivation for the team from Nicosia is much stronger, while the stress for the mountain that they have to climb will get the best from the hosts. Therefore, we suggest the win for APOEL Nicosia as a wager for this one.Â
