Flora and Anorthosis get a break from their league challenge to fight for a possible trophy in this Europa Conference League Group Stage fixture.
These are hectic days for the host team, as they had a game only four days ago in the Meistriliiga. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Trans.
Anorthosis have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 4200 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
Flora form and stats
2W-1D-2L is the hard facts regardless of venue in the Europa Conference League for Flora. Flora haven’t lost a league-game in ten attempts regardless of arena, a great achievement. Their last loss was the fixture versus Kuressaare, 81 days ago.
Flora enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Trans's place. The match ended 2-0 with R. Sappinen (2) scoring.
Previous to that game, a Meistriliiga home match hosting Tammeka in a game that was won 9-0.This is expected to be a close game, with Flora perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Flora as a small favourite), we find two games. Flora has won two of these, drawn zero and lost zero.
Flora are traveling soon after this match as the Meistriliiga match at Nomme Kalju awaits in three days.
Anorthosis form and stats
1 win, 0 draws and 3 losses. That’s the product of Anorthosis playing as the away team in the 1. Division this season. The mentioned statistics is only from the league, looking at the Europa Conference League stats, they have 1 win, 2 draws and 2 losses both home and away.
It's the second away game in a row for Anorthosis, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Omonia Nicosia in the 1. Division last time out.
Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus AEK Larnaca.So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Anorthosis playing away and similar expectations, we found three relevant matches. Results were zero Anorthosis wins, two draws and one defeat.
After this away game Anorthosis return home for a 1. Division game against Paphos. That game is only three sleeps after this.
