Prediction: 2-1
Legia Warsaw
After suffering a shocking 2-0 loss to Spartak Trnava in front of home fans, Legia have no other choice but to go all guns blazing at the Slovakian side in Tuesday’s football match at City Arena Trnava. The Polish champions are determined to set up a meeting with Crvena Zvezda in the third qualifying round, but recording a big win over Spartak in Trnava is easier said than done. The Slovaks played very smart in the first leg and, as a result, they are with one foot in round 3. The hosts are likely to adopt a cautious approach in the return leg, but we predict that they are going to have a number of chances to score on the break. In their first ever home game in the Champions League Spartak defeated Zrinjski and, taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Radoslav Latal’s charges.

Highlighted Team (Legia Warsaw):
Legia is a football club based in Warsaw and it is one of the most successful sides in Polish history. The Militarians – as they are commonly referred to in Poland – have won 11 Ekstraklasa Championship title, while they also hold the record-18 Polish Cup trophies and four Polish SuperCup matches.
Founded as the main official football club of the Polish Army, Legia Warsaw are playing theirhome matches at the Polish Army Stadium which can accommodate 31,000 people. Legia have endured mixed fortunes at the international scene with the Polish giants regularly participating in Europa League, with four group inclusions over the last six years. The Militarians headed into the 2016-17 season feeling buoyed and motivated having succeeded in ending the 20-year Champions League wait, becoming the first Polish team to take part in Europe’s elite competition over the last two decades.
The 3-1 aggregate playoff victory over Irish Dundalk earned them a place in the final showpiece with Legia being thrown into a heavy mix with the likes of Sporting CP, Borussia Dortmund and European champions Real Madrid.
