Videoton and AEK Athens hard to separate
On Wednesday night, Videoton host AEK Athens in the Champions League play-off first leg, as both teams look for a crucial advantage to take into the second leg in two weeks’ time.
Videoton saw off Swedish side Malmo on away goals after a 1-1 aggregate draw in the last round. AEK Athens defeated Scottish Celtic 3-2 to set up this clash and the Greek side are arguably slight favourites to progress to the group stages.
The home side are unbeaten in six Champions league games. However, four of those unbeaten games have finished in draws. In fact, Vidi have won just two of their last nine matches in Europe’s elite competition.
The Hungarian side’s recent games in the Champions League have been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in nine of their last ten games.
Vidi are unbeaten at home in the Champions league in six games since making their competition debut back in 2011. Their recent home games in the competition have been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five outings.
AEK Athens have won just one of their last seven games in the Champions League. A 2-1 win at Celtic last time out ended a six-game winless run in the competition for the Greek side, though.
Their recent games in Europe’s elite competition have been relatively low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last six matches.
AEK have a terrible away record in the Champions league, winning just one of their last 15 games on their travels in the competition. In fact, the visitors have lost eight of their last 11 away games in the Champions League.
The Greek side has struggled to keep opposing teams out in the Champions League on their travels, as they have conceded at least twice in seven of their last ten games.
This tie could be a tight one, which is why it is unsurprising that Forebet predicts a low-scoring draw in this first leg tie.
