"Pafos" - CSKA 1948: betting tip for the match of the Conference League
There are quite a few pairs in the third round of the Conference League qualification, among which it is unclear who will go further. One of them is Pafos - CSKA 1948. The hosts of the upcoming match unexpectedly lost the first away match, so on their home field on August 15, the Cypriots need to play at 100% of their capabilities in order not to be left out of the European Cups. Will they be able to do this and which option to choose for the bet? - you will find the answer in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Pafos FC
CyprusCurrent form
Pafos had a brilliant pre-season, winning three out of four friendly matches and drawing one. The luck ran out as soon as the matches in the European Cup qualification began. Let us recall that the hosts of the upcoming match started in the Europa League and in the first round they were knocked out by Swedish Elfsborg, losing two matches with a total score of 2:8. Then there was a nervous match in the Conference League with Zalgiris. Having suffered a fiasco on the road with a score of 1:2, Juan Carlos Carcela's protégés won minimally on their home field in regular time (1:0). There were two additional overtimes and there they managed to score two more unanswered goals.
The Cyprus Championship has not started yet, so there is plenty of time to prepare for each match. In order not to spoil the nerves of yourself and the fans, in the upcoming match you need to win with an advantage of two goals. Judging by the team's play, you can't say that it is capable of this at the moment.
Interesting trends for betting

CSKA 1948
BulgariaCurrent form
Unlike their upcoming opponent, CSKA 1948 had a lackluster pre-season campaign, but is playing well in the new season. Five games were played and none of the teams lost in regulation time (four draws and a win). In the last round of the Conference League, they barely managed to get past Budućnost Podgorica. Thanks to a goal in overtime, the Bulgarian team found itself in the semi-finals of the qualification.
In the match a week ago on their home field, the hosts pleased the fans by winning the match with a score of 2:1. Moreover, a third goal was scored in the 73rd minute, but it was not counted due to a foul. Despite the high-quality game a week ago, bookmakers still do not believe that the guests will be able to advance to the qualification final.
Interesting trends for betting
In the last three away matches, CSKA 1948 couldn't even score against their opponents
The visitors are often unable to disrupt the opponent's attack, so they have to break the rules. On average, they manage to commit 13.6 fouls per match
Estimated composition
Marinov - Rapnuil, Tsenov, Ivanov, Furtado - Daskalov, Pischevich - Kirilov, Talis, Karagaren - Ilievski

1.95Tip and bets
Bookmakers are seriously underestimating CSKA 1948. In the last round, the team showed that it is capable of playing on equal terms with the upcoming opponent. Yes, the meeting will be away and it will not be easy on the opponent's field, but we are inclined to think that the guests will at least be able to score against the upcoming opponent.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 2.03
Bet on the outcome
“Pafos” is clearly not in its best form now and, as it seems to us, even on its home field it will not be able to win against its opponents in regular time with an advantage of two or more goals.
Our betting tip is Asian handicap (+1.5) on CSKA 1948 with odds of 1.74
Bet on corners
The teams took 11 corners between them in the first match, nine of which were taken by Pafos. Let's bet that the hosts will take more corners this time too.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-2.5) corners for Paphos with odds of 1.60
