Apoel vs Anderlecht (Pick, Prediction, Preview)
The Cypriot Apoel wants to continue with his European dream, as he has done in recent years and for this he must be solid local, which has been his premise throughout the competition. That’s why it will be his approach when he receives Anderlecht in the first leg of the Europa League round of 16. His defense has been solid throughout the season, so in his last 10 home games he has only conceded a goal in four of them. For their part, the Belgian team does not make many goals as a visitor in the European competition. In his last five games he scored, but only in two of them did more than one target. Added to this, it will be a duel of much tactical calculation, where none will want to be exposed too much. Therefore it is possible that it is a match without many goals.
