PAOK Spartak Moskva betting prediction

The home team comes to this stage of the UEFA Champions League (3rd Qualifying Round) after having eliminated Basel with a away win by (0‑3) and a home win by (2‑1) in the previous round. This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 14 wins and 1 loss in away matches; against 10 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses at their stadium. In the last 10 home matches PAOK has won 6, tied 2 and lost 2. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, since 23 of the last 26 have ended with Over 1,5 goals and 20 out of 26 have ended with Over 2,5 goals.

In this first confrontation the team plays at home for the Champions League after surpassing another opponent by the 2nd round of qualification as already mentioned. The team won the only game they played alongside their fans for this competition, beside the fact that demonstrated mainly a good offensive income after scoring two goals and suffering only one. It is worth mentioning that PAOK have sought to be offensive since the beginning of the match in this competition, as proof of this are the goals scored in the competition in virtually all different moments of the match. In this confrontation the coach should opt for a more offensive way of acting, aiming to leave with a positive result in this first duel, however, without neglecting his defensive sector. The highlight of the team within this competition is striker A. Prijović with two goals scored in total.

Confirmed Lineup: Alexandros Paschalakis, Léo Matos, José Ángel Crespo, Fernando Varela, Evgeniy Khacheridi, José Alberto Cañas, Maurício, Dimitris Pelkas, Omar El Kaddouri, Dimitris Limnios, Aleksandar Prijović.
Coach: R. Lucescu.
