Match Preview
Slovan has stepped up its preparations for the new season, having started early in the Champions League qualification. They’ve already beaten Struga from Northern Macedonia and Celje from Slovenia. At home, the team has been impressive; they scored four goals against Struga, even though they only had a two-goal lead from the first game. Against Celje, after drawing away, Slovan won 5-0 at home, partly because the other team had a player sent off early. In the national league, Slovan has also started well, winning their first two games and taking the top spot in the standings.

APOEL is the current champion of Cyprus, having just barely finished ahead of AEK Larnaca. During their preseason, the team didn’t look very sharp but didn’t lose any games. In the last round of Champions League qualification, APOEL stayed unbeaten, winning 1-0 at home against Moldovan team Petrocube and drawing 1-1 away. APOEL will start their new season in Cyprus with the Super Cup match, which will happen in about a week and a half.

Goaloo Prediction
APOEL is unlikely to win the upcoming match. However, a draw or a close loss would be fine for them before the return game. Slovan probably won’t do much better, so betting on a 1-0 win for Slovan seems like a good idea.

Slovan should have the advantage since they’re playing at home and their season has already started, while Cyprus is still getting ready for the season. So, betting on a win for Slovan in the next match is a strong choice.

Pick: Slovan Bratislava Win
