🔮 Prediction
When taking all factors into account, Anorthosis Famagusta have it in them to find the net against this Pafos outfit, although one goal probably won’t quite be as many as the goals that they could concede.
We’re therefore expecting both teams to score in a 1-2 advantage for Pafos when the referee blows the final whistle. Looking forward to seeing how this one unfolds.
