As part of the return match of the second qualifying round of the Champions League, the players of "Flora" and "Legia"will come face to face. Will the Poles be able to win in the upcoming confrontation?
"Flora"
For the players of" Flora", the qualification of the Champions League began in early July. The Maltese club Hibernians received Jurgen Henn's team as rivals. Flora did not have any problems, and after winning 2-0 on their own field, the team defeated the opponent away – 3-0, advancing to the next round. In Warsaw with Legia, Flora held a 1-1 draw until the 91st minute, but missed an offensive ball. Now the Tallinn team is obliged to beat the Poles on its own field.
"Legia"
Legia also managed to pass one round of qualification, but the opponent was several times stronger than Flora. In the confrontation with " Bude/Glimt " the Polish champion managed to win two victories and unexpectedly easily passed the Norwegians with a total score of 5:2. In the home meeting with "Flora", the "army" were considered the clear favorite of the battle, but they overcame the opponent with great difficulty (2:1), without realizing a huge number of moments. In the return game, Legia will most likely act defensively.
Statistics and figures:
- "Legia" is quoted as a favorite among bookmakers;
- The first meeting between the teams ended with a score of 2: 1 in favor of the Polish champion;
- "Flora" suffered only one defeat in 5 previous meetings;
- Legia has not lost in all competitions in the last 8 matches.
Forecast
I assume that the return meeting will also be productive. "Flora" will provoke the opponent to an open game, because she herself needs to recoup. At the same time, Legia will not leave the field without its goal.
