AEK Athens FC vs Aris Prediction & Tips
AEK Athens took a 2-0 lead in the first game, but were unable to hold on to it and allowed their opponents to equalise. Despite this, Marko Nikolic’s side are still going strong, going six games unbeaten, including four wins.
Defensive reliability remains a key factor, especially at home, where AEK know how to cool down the pace of the game and control the tempo. After a narrow victory over Hapoel Be’er Sheva in the previous round, the Greek side are looking to repeat the formula for success and move one step closer to the group stage.
Aris Limassol showed character in the first match, coming from two goals down to maintain intrigue ahead of their visit to Athens. However, Artyom Radkov’s side are approaching the game with caution, as their pre-season results left doubts: no wins in three friendlies.
