Petrocub knocked Sheriff off the throne in Moldova, but in the Champions League they were eliminated by another Cypriot club, namely Apoel Nicosia. However, they did not give up easily after a 1:1 draw at home and a 0:1 loss away. Then they were eliminated from the Europa League with two losses to Ludogorets. On the eve of the upcoming match, they do not seem to be in good form with three wins in their last ten matches in all competitions. All three wins were at home, where they have only lost once since the beginning of the season, with that loss being 1:2 against Ludogorets.
The European campaign for Pafos started with elimination by Elfsborg in the Europa League. Then they eliminated three teams in the Conference League after strong home performances. They have otherwise lost their away matches against the three opponents. They started the season well in the Cypriot championship, but we will see if they will start their debut in the groups just as well.
Prediction: under 2.5 goalsPetrocub does not seem to be in form, but they are not easily beaten at home. Six out of their eight matches in Europe this season have had under 2.5 goals. Pafos reached the groups thanks to their strong performances at home, and although they are considered favorites, I would only choose the option for under 2.5 goals in this match.
