This is 2nd leg match between Pyunik Erevan and Anorthosis Famagusta . First match played in Cyprus ended with Anorthosis’s narrow win 1-0 obtained from a penalty kick . First game was very important for both teams to start well their Champions league campaign and to give each team hope .           

            Pyunik defended most of the game and rejected well most of Anorthosis’s attacks  they maintained reasonable score . There were 18 shots on goal according to some reports and 3 times ball hit post . Pyunik team was very defensive minded . They got this low score because Anorthosis wasn’t effective and didn’t convert chances that they had .

Now in second leg Pyunik will have to push more in attack as they need to win in order to qualify further . But looking through Pyunik’s statistic in domestic league I can notice something interesting : in last 20 games played , just twice they went over 2,5 goals . So this might mean that this is their usual tactis , defending , or they have very good defense . Each way works for me and I am going to back under 2.5 goals since both teams should approach this game calm and especially for Cypriot team they shouls defend their narrow win .

I believe , speaking about value , that Cypriot team has more value and they should lead attacks in this game . Still under2.5 is my choice . Pyunik played last years in CL qualifications too and they got similar results with few  goals scored :

Shakhtar Donetsk vs. Pyunik 2:1

Pyunik vs. Shakhtar Donetsk 0:2

Pyunik vs. Derry City 2:0

Derry City vs. Pyunik 0:0

Sherif Tiraspol vs. Pyunik 2:0

 

My bet :

Pyunik- Anorthosis Famangusta under 2,5 goals @1.75
