Dnipro-1 will be welcoming AEK Larnaca in a crucial second leg playoff match in the UEFA Europa Conference League 2022/23.
Ukrainian side Dnipro-1 FK will welcome Larnaca in the second leg of the UEFA Europa Conference League 2022/23 playoffs matchup. Larnaca were third in their Europa League table so they were demoted to the Conference League. Dnipro-1, on the other hand, finished second in their group and finishing five points behind the group toppers, AZ Alkmaar. The first leg was played at Larnaca’s home stadium, in which Larnaca won the match. The second leg will be played at Kosicka Futbalova Arena, Kosice, Slovakia because of alleged safety concerns.
Dnipro-1 have not been that good in their recent fixtures. They have only won three of their last seven games and are quite inconsistent at the moment. They also lost the first leg against Larnaca with the score of 1-0. They are currently first in their league, five points ahead of the second place Shakhtar Donetsk. Dnipro-1 will be the underdogs in this end to end game as they will not have the support of their passionate home fans.
Larnaca have had a fairly positive result in their previous matches. They have won five in their last seven matches. They are on top in the Cyprus First Division league, with one points clear on top. They also have a one goal advantage over Dnipro-1 and hope that they will progress as they want their Conference league campaign is more successful than their Europa League campaign. They will try to defend their advantage and move to the next round.
Dnipro-1 reportedly have no fitness or suspension issues to deal with. For Larnaca, they will be without their top scorer Omri Altman.
Dnipro-1 possible line-up: Walef, Hayner, Svatok, Sarapiy, Hamache, Babenko, Rubchynskyi, Gutsulyak, Pikhalyonok, Peglow, Dovbyk
Larnaca possible line-up: Piric, Rosales, Milicevic, Tomovic, Angel, Pons, Ledes, Faraj, Trickovski, Jakolis, Lopes
