Legia Warsaw vs Flora Prediction

The hosts are overwhelming favorites in the game and will be fancied to get into the driving seat in the tie with a win on home soil. Legia have superior players to FC Flora and anything other than a win over the Estonians would be seen as a disappointing result.

The visitors have enough pace in attack to take advantage of any lapse in concentration but we are predicting a comfortable victory for Legia Warsaw.

Prediction: Legia Warsaw 3-0 Flora
