Our prediction for this Champions League match:
Against all odds, APOEL suffered a 3-1 loss to Suduva in Lithuania in the first leg of the Champions League first qualifying round. The Cypriotes scored a vital away goal in the dying minutes of the match, which helped them keep their hopes of booking their place in the second qualifying round alive. APOEL participate in the group stages of the elite competition last term and they certainly want to repeat the success. In the last season’s qualifiers APOEL defeated the likes of Dudelange, Viitorul and Slavia Prague at home, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of Tuesday’s football match. Bruno Baltazar’s troops are a real force to be reckoned with at home and we predict that they are going to overcome the deficit in the return leg. Anyhow, APOEL defenders should have Rigino Cicilia, who scored a hat-trick in the first leg, at bay.
