A great European League football evening will be held before the fans of the most popular sport in the world on Thursday. On the fifth day of the group stage many decisions will be made. In Kazakhstan’s capital Astana, however, the fans hope that Thursday’s withdrawal will be prevented. For this, however, the Young Boys ‘Berningers’ help in parallel play. Betting, Astana keeps the race open for place 2 in the group?
The chances of Astana on the KO-phase of the Europa League are negligible. In addition to a victory against APOEL Nikosia, the Swiss defense aid would be necessary. At the same time, Astana would then have to beat Berne and APOEL in the parallel game of the final group game days. It is really questionable whether the Kazakhstan club itself still believes in the miracle. Coach Baysufinov will of course not throw the shotgun, as long as there are still mathematical chances. Accordingly, the parent formation against APOEL will be on the lawn. Teams from Kazakhstan have been known for a certain amount of home strength in recent years. This is primarily due to the fact that the guest clubs generally have a longer journey behind them and also the climatic conditions deviate strongly from the hometown. This is also the case on Thursday: While in Astana temperatures around -10 degrees are predicted, one can trust in Cyprus almost in the T-shirt in front of the door. In the case of games with the involvement of the Kazakhs, 2.5 goals have been scored on average in the group phase. On the fifth day of the match, an overwhelming goal is added to the fact that Astana has to play for victory.
APOEL Nikosia have already scored three narrow victories in the Europa League, each with a goal lead. In addition, the 1: 3 defeat at the Young Boys Bern. However, as Olympiakos Piraeus enjoyed the favorite role after the draw, Thomas Christiansen’s team can be very satisfied. Less their own requirements corresponded the 0: 1 defeat in the league day last weekend at AEL Limassol. Since Larnaca also slipped, the residue to the table top remained at a constant two counters. APOEL Nikosia will install Astana’s usual defensive basic system, and will be looking for success with counterattacks. Since Astana has to set the tone itself, this is certainly a proven tool.
