An away win coming up
Apollon Limassol are having their worst run of form in almost a year; they are coming off three consecutive losses, and have no wins in their last six matches. In contrast, Maccabi Haifa have no losses in their last four games; they've been impressive lately, with consecutive 4:0 wins, including the reverse fixture of this tie. Although Apollon Limassol have the advantage of playing at home, they will be without one of their best defenders, who was sent off in the first leg; and considering they lost by a 4:0 score line in the reverse fixture, we believe that Maccabi Haifa will complete the sweep.
Someone will fail to score
Apollon Limassol suffered five losses in their last six games, this is due, in part, to their lack of goals. It's important to note that Apollon Limassol blanked in four of their last six games; conversely, they allowed 11 goals in their last four games alone. Maccabi Haifa, on the other hand, scored eight goals in their last two games, whilst conceding no goals. It's fair to point out that both teams' games have mostly been one-sided in goalscoring terms; at least one side failed to score in four of Maccabi Haifa's last six, and in four of Apollon Limassol's last six games. On that note, one of these teams should keep a clean sheet.
