Atromitos – Legia Warszawa

Atromitos – Legia Warszawa

Atromitos hosts Legia Warszawa in a rematch of the third preliminary round of the Europa League tournament. The match will be held on Wednesday, August 14. Read below our Europa League prediction for this game.

Atromitos made a strong showing during their visit to Warsaw last week, going unbeaten after a 0-0 draw. The Legion team must regret not taking an advance in front of their own audience and now the revenge will be quite difficult for them. However, the Polish team did not allow a goal on their own pitch, so this is quite important in the elimination clashes and could be the key to qualifying for the playoffs in the Europa League. Legia Warsaw will seek to score in Athens, which will make them a favorite to qualify for the next phase. If the Poles are the first to score, then everything will develop for them according to plan and will have a huge advantage.

The Atromitos team won their previous home game 3-2 against Dunajská Streda in the Europa League second round match. In the last phase, the Greek team achieved two victories against Dunajská Streda and won their away game in Slovakia by 2:1. So in three consecutive games Atromitos will not be defeated in the Europa League, but will he manage to eliminate the stronger team of Legia Warsaw? In his last appearance in the tournament, Atromitos was eliminated at the start after losing 4:5 to Dinamo Brest. Now the fans of the team are hoping for a playoff qualification and why not participate in the group stage of the second most powerful club tournament in Europe.

Legia Warszawa will have to deal with a very poor statistic – the team does not win as a guest of the Europa League in eight consecutive games. In six of these against the Polish team did not even manage to score. Four of Legia’s last five away appearances in the tournament ended with under 2.5 goals scored, so I don’t expect many goals in the upcoming match.
Good luck in our’s Europa League predictions!
