Krasnodar vs PAOK Thessaloniki
Champions League Qualification
Date: Tuesday, 22 September 2020
Kick-off at 20:00 UK/ 21:00 CET
Venue: Krasnodar Stadium.
The Bulls are from the comparatively far better Russian Premier League, and they also have been on a roll lately. In fact, they had recorded a 7-2 win in their latest game, and netted a total of ten goals from their past two fixtures.
They have also been in good form at home this year, and importantly, they have a 100% unbeaten record against this rival.
And on top of that, the White-Blacks have had troubles performing on the road in the past several weeks as well.
For the reasons, expect Krasnodar to be the better team on the pitch this Tuesday.
The Bulls have scored a total of ten goals from their last two games, and they have lost just twice at home in the whole of 2020 till now. Importantly, both these losses had come against two of the best teams in the league.
Going on, they also do have an unbeaten record in h2h clashes against this rival, and have a perfect winning record at home in such fixtures.
In addition, the Greeks have had a total of two wins away from home in the past seven months, and they had failed to score in four of their former eight road trips.
Considering these observations, expect Krasnodar to make the most of this first leg, and secure a huge upper hand in this final qualification obstacle to the Champions League.
