Pafos

WLLLWL

Pafos won’t want a repeat of their last result here following a 2-1 First Division loss in their previous game against Ethnikos Achna.

The only name on the scoresheet from Pafos was Derrick Luckassen (83'). Christos Giousis (6', 88') scored for Ethnikos Achna.

It’s not been often in recent games where Pafos have shown defensive steel. The facts show that Pafos have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, shipping 8 goals during that time.

Going into this encounter, Pafos haven't lost in the league to APOEL in their last 2 matches.

APOEL

DWWLDW

APOEL will go into this clash following on from a 0-2 First Division win in the defeat of Olympiakos Nicosia in their previous outing.

For APOEL, the goals were scored by Stefan Dražić (80') and Nikolas Koutsakos (82').

A succession of steadfast showings by the APOEL defensive players has seen the number of goals they’ve conceded amounting to 4 from their previous 6 fixtures overall. In that time, their forwards have scored 9. That pattern isn’t assured to follow through here, though.

📋 Team News: Pafos

Pedrão (Cruciate ligament surgery) and João Correia (Muscle injury) will not be taking part for Pafos manager Albert Celades. Ineligible players who cannot play in this game through suspension are Ken Sema, Derrick Luckassen and Jay Gorter.

💡 Prediction

When taking everything into account, APOEL will need to push hard to score against this Pafos side who should get the win and a maybe even keep a clean sheet as well.

We therefore fancy a very even contest with a 1-0 victory for Pafos when the full-time whistle blows.

Should be interesting.
