LiontipsAEK Larnaca vs APOEL. Prediction (odds 3.25) and bets on the Cyprus Championship match
Command Analysis
Current form
AEK is the current vice-champion of Cyprus. Only by additional indicators the team failed to become the champion of the country. The team is playing well this season, but there is room for improvement. After 18 matches played with 37 points scored, the team is in third place in the national championship. The club has problems with the implementation of moments, because among the first five teams it is the only club that has not scored even 30 goals (29). The main points are scored on their home field, if we go into detail, then in eight of the nine previous matches the team pleased its fans with a victory, so it is quite logical that the team is presented as the favorite.

Current form
APOEL is in no way inferior to its upcoming opponent in terms of its latest results. The visitors have not known defeat for nine games in a row. In their last match, the team defeated Omonia on May 29 with a score of 6:1, so at the moment, the current champion of the country is in a good mood and, of course, is determined to rise in the ranking, because so far they have managed to occupy only fifth place in the tournament table, and the gap from the leader Aris is already 11 points.

1.71Tip and bets
The head-to-head match will feature teams that perform well in attack and rarely leave the field without scoring a goal. AEK failed to score in only one of the last eight meetings, while APOEL has been scoring against their opponents for 2.5 months in a row (14 matches). Such statistics suggest that the opponents will upset each other at least once. In the two previous head-to-head meetings, only one goal was scored, so it’s time to correct this statistic.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.86
Bet on the outcome
AEK are the favourites in the match, but this is only due to the home field factor. It is difficult to single out anyone based on the game, especially considering that both clubs have lost only once in the last ten matches. We are inclined to think that the game will be equal and after the final whistle the winner will not be determined.
Our prediction is a draw with odds of 3.25
Bet on corners
Since we are expecting a match with headwinds, it is likely that there will be quite a few corners. We will make another bet on the over total for corner flag deliveries.
Our prediction is total over 8.5 corners with odds of 1.72
