Legia vs AEK Larnaca Prediction & Betting Tips (14 August)

You should not lose the first leg in Larnaca or the minimum stay in the wake with a reverse of a maximum goal. Rather failed operation for Warsaw who will have to take out her best magic card to reverse the 4-1 defeat trend. It will be recalled that the Poles started this new season from July 10 via the first round of these Europa League qualifiers. At that precise moment, they released the Aktobe kazakhs by winning the two meetings 1-0 and 0-1. In the process, they got rid of the Czechs of Ostrava more difficultly by not winning outside during the first 2-2 round, 2-1 victory on home. Now walking seems higher with the Cypriots who had no remorse during the first salvo and the expulsion of Kapustka has not changed anything in the course of the match.

Note that the Polish championship has already reopened its doors for three days and the Legia took 7 points by winning against Katowice last weekend 3-1 and on the lawn of Korona at the J1 0-2. After having beaten the Partizan de Belgrade in the first round qualification in Tab, the Slovenes of Celje in the 2nd round 3-3 Aek Larnaca attacked Legia Warsaw by crushing it in the first leg at home 4-1. The qualification is practically acted for the only 4th in the last championship campaign. Cypriot football is evolving and the winner of the Cyprus Cup only confirms it. In addition, during the three friendly preparation games, no defeat is to be listed for the AEK which is therefore undefeated at the start of the 2025-26 season all friendly friendly competitions included. 

Excluded to the first leg, the holder Kapustka (9 league goals last season) will not evolve today. No more than Elitim, injured. Back from his loan from Athens Kallithea, the Frenchman Migouel Alfarela (1 goal, 1 assist in 3 league appearances) now seems to have the favors of his coach. Note, however, that Marc GUAL (9 goals, 4 championship assists last season) and Luquinhas (Fortaleza, loan return) left this summer. They were two of the main major elements in the attacking sector. Slight alert concerning the crucial Chodyna (holder in the first leg) absent in the league, probably preserved for this return match. Alert for the central defender holding the first leg: Valentin Roberge, released prematurely on injury.

A priori, no risk will be incurred by the medical staff. Flawer on the outward journey, the 34 -year -old Swedish midfielder Marcus Rohden could also forfeit today. Absent for three games in these qualifiers, the Argentinian Goleador Enzo Cabrera (12 league goals last season) played half an hour for his return to competition in the first leg. The interesting Airor Cantalapiedra (10 league goals) did not stay at the end of his loan and Faraj (5 goals) has just been transferred on the side of Neftci Baku. Arrived from Alaves in 2022, Pere Pons scored in the first leg as well as Karol Angielski (7 goals last season), Yerson Chacon (4 goals last year) and Angel Garcia.
