Apoel Nicosia vs Petrocub Hincesti Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League

Prediction published on 23/07/2024, 04:54 by Ian John in Champions League Predictions

Apoel Nicosia of Cyprus host Moldovan champions FC Petrocub Hincesti in what looks like being one of the more closely contested Second Qualifying Round matches in the Champions League. Thrylos have much more experience in European competition than their Moldovan opponents but the Hincesti Lions will be hopeful of causing an upset in what looks likely to be a very tight opening match between the two. Which side will our prediction favour for this key first leg encounter?

With home advantage and a far greater pedigree in Europe, Apoel Nicosia will feel they are good value as favourites to win the game. The Cypriot Champions only claimed the title on head-to-head record after finishing level with AEK Larnaca on 73 points last season. Their cosmopolitan squad is managed well by Spaniard David Gallego but their four friendly games so far this season have seen just one win and three draws. Their last result being a 0-0 draw in a friendly last week against AEK Larnaca.

FC Petrocub claimed the double of Moldovan Cup and a first ever Moldovan Super Liga title last season under manager Andrei Martin. Unlike their opponents, their squad is comprised predominantly of home nation players, with a trio of Ghanaians and a Cameroonian adding some African flair to the mix. In 19 games in Europe in their history, they have managed just eleven goals in total and conceded 21.

Against Kazakhstan's Ordabasy in the first round of qualifying for the Champions League, they drew 0-0 in the first leg in Kazakhstan before earning a narrow 1-0 win in the second leg on home soil.

A Third Qualifying Round tie against either Selje or Slovan Bratislava awaits the winner of this contest.
