APOEL vs Djurgardens IF prediction

APOEL were hardly in the game in the first leg in Sweden as they were outclassed in every aspect by their rivals. The 3-0 defeat was the perfect reflection of their performance on the night.

If APOEL find a way to overcome such a massive deficit, it will be nothing less than a miracle. Despite the fact that the second leg will be in Cyprus, they have incurred too large a deficit given their own capacity.

Ad

Djurgardens do not have anything to prove and will look to be professional in the second leg and secure qualification.

Djurgardens are odds-on favorites in this tie and are expected to seal the contest by a large margin as they did in Sweden.

Prediction: APOEL 0-3 Djurgardens
