On Sunday, in an early match in the framework of the 21st round of the Cyprus championship, Nicosia Omonia will play at home with Paphos. We bring to your attention the forecast for this duel.
"Omonia"
Omonia is currently closing the top-6 in the standings, keeping a good chance of advancing to the second part of the championship with a group of leaders. In the first week of January, she confidently defeated Enosis on the road (3:0), and coped with Doxa at home (2:0). In the middle of the month there was a minimal home victory over AEL (1-0). In the last round, the winning streak of the Nicosia team was still cut short by a defeat from Nea Salamina (1:2).
"Pathos"
"Paphos" is in 3rd place in the championship standings, trying not to fall off from the championship race. So far, the gap from the leader is 3 points. At the beginning of the new calendar year, two accidents happened – a defeat away from AEK (0:1) and a draw at home with Apollon (2:2). In the last two rounds, the Paphos team won Enosis away (2:0) and Doksu on their own field (3:1). Between these successes there was also a cup home victory over Akritas (3:1).
Statistics and figures
- Omonia has won 4 matches out of the last five, losing only once;
- Omonia has not conceded in six of the last eight matches;
- Omonia has an 8-match winning streak at home, conceding only 1 goal in them;
- "Paphos" has lost only 1 match out of the last seven, winning 5 times;
- In three of the last four matches of Paphos, the bet "Both teams will score + Total more than 3.5" was held;
- "Paphos" lost only 1 match out of 11 away matches played this season, winning 7 times.
Forecast
In the first round match, Paphos confidently defeated Omonia at home with a score of 3:0. But the Nicosia team then lacked strength due to participation in the group stage of the Europa League. Now the residents of Nicosia have no problems with fatigue, and they have conceded only 1 goal at home over the past three months. I don't think the hosts will lose here.
