Prediction: 0-1
AEK Larnaca
Varosi Stadion in Mezokovesdi will host Thursday’s Conference League qualifier between Zhodino and AEK Larnaca, who meet for the first time in European competitions. Zhodino play home game on a neutral location due to the current political situation in Belarus, which is probably the main reason why odds for away win have been dropping. New signing Evans Mensah is likely to make his debut against AEK Larnaca.
The Cypriotes, on the other hand, defeated Al Taee in their last warm-up game, meaning that they are high on spirits ahead of the trip to Hungary. Considering that Jose Luis Oltra has a number of quality internationals to choose from, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the away team. New signing Francisco Sol, who played for the likes of Malaga and Eibar in the past, is likely to prove a handful for the opposition back-line.

Born in Caracas, Venezuela on November 20, 1988, Roberto Rosales is a pacey full back who plays for Malaga in La Liga. Rosales started his career at the youth team of Deportivo Gulima and he played for his home-town club Caracas during his youth career as well.
