Flora vs Legia Warsaw: BTTS No Draw

Flora went to Warsaw with a gameplan and it nearly worked out until Legia forward Rafael Lopes sent the ball home in the 90th minute to make it 2-1 on the night. Flora’s fitness compared to Legia’s shone through, with the Estonian side in action since March while Legia have only now played a handful of games. However, Legia’s experience, and their boisterous home crowd, saw them come out on top. Flora’s valuable away goal may well prove the difference here.

Flora are a very strong side at home and have now gone 40 games on home turf without losing, besides the odd friendly. Of their last 10 games at home they’ve scored at least two in eight of them and kept six clean sheets. Legia are obviously no pushovers, winning nine Polish Ekstraklasa titles over the last 20 years. Their away form has seen them win seven of their last 10 on the road, drawing the other three. Both teams are in decent form, and they’re both scoring plenty too. We can see some decent value in Both Teams to Score, No Draw here.

HJK vs Malmo: Over 2.5 Goals

HJK also come into their second leg match 1-2 down to Malmo. Both teams won their domestic games at the weekend and both are 13 games into their league seasons. Finnish side HJK have now gone 28 competitive home games without defeat while Malmo have lost three of their last 10 away from home, winning five and drawing two.

It’s hard not to see both teams getting on the scoresheet here. HJK have scored at least two goals in nine of their last 10 home matches while Sweden’s Malmo have scored at least one on their travels in nine out of their last 10 matches, scoring two in six.

The market has made the away side the favourites here but HJK’s scoring record is too good to deny. For two teams in good form and good goal-scoring form, there’s plenty of value in Over 2.5 Goals here, a bet that would have landed in three of the last five games for both teams playing home/away.

One man with a close eye on this game will be Steven Gerrard, with Rangers playing the winners in round three of qualifying.

Omonia Nicosia vs Dinamo Zagreb: Both Teams to Score

Omonia have a tough night ahead of them here. They trail 0-2 from the first leg and an away goal for Dinamo would surely end their slim hopes of advancing. Omonia have only played twice so far this season to Dinamo’s five, four of which they’ve won, losing one and keeping three clean sheets.

The Cypriot champions are a decent outfit at home where they’ve lost just one of their last 10 games, however, Dinamo share the same record on their away trips. That said, Dinano have a far better scoring record with 22 goals to Omonia’s 11. The home side need at least two goals here to draw level on aggregate and with Zagreb’s scoring record it’s hard to see them not getting at least one. We’re going with Both Teams to Score here.
