Apollon Limassol vs Shamrock Rovers Prediction & Betting Tips - Europa League
by Steve Ashfield | in Europa League Predictions
Shamrock Rovers haven't made it past the second qualifying round of the Europa League since the 2011/12 season. That year saw them reach the group stages but they haven't got anywhere near close since then. This season they beat Brann 4-3 on aggregate in the first qualifying round. They twice came from behind in the away first leg, grabbing a 2-2 draw with a 94th minute equalizer. Again they went behind in the home second leg but two goals in the last 14 minutes took them through to this second qualfying round. The first leg of this tie again followed a regular pattern. Shamrock went 1-0 down after just five minutes but rallied to win 2-1 They have only won one of their last 11 away EuropeanS games but are unbeaten in their last seven matches.
Apollon Limassol had a much easier route to this round. They beat Kauno Zalgiris 6-0 on aggregate, winning the home second leg 4-0. They have reached the group stages of this competition for the past two seasons. Last season they beat Lazio at home and drew with Marseille. Only one of their last nine home European games have been lost and just two of the last 18. The away goal they scored in Ireland may well prove crucial regards who qualifies and Apollon can be backed to win this match.

Our Apollon Limassol vs Shamrock Rovers Prediction
Apollon Limassol will be upset at giving away a lead in the first leg but the goal they scored could be crucial. They have a strong home record in European competition and will prove a tough nut for Shamrock to crack. The Irish side have fought hard in this competition and made some good recoveries. Away form isn't good though and this looks booked for a home win.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
