KuPS and Kairat Almaty both progressed through the first qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League 2025/26 and will be looking to advance further in the competition. They meet on Tuesday at the Vare Areena.

The Finnish champions had a difficult first qualifying round against Moldovan side FC Milsami. The Finns narrowly won 1-0 in the first leg at home and drew 0-0 away from home.

Kairat Almaty, on the other hand, beat Olimpija 2-0 in the second leg after having to settle for a 1-1 draw in the first leg in Slovenia.

KuPS - Kairat Almaty Betting Tips: Under 2.5 Goals Total

Neither KuPS nor Kairat Almaty showed in the first qualifying round that they are capable of dictating the game with a dominant and attacking style. Both teams progressed to the next round of the competition with uninspiring performances over the two legs. In all four of the first and second leg encounters, both teams produced less than 2.5 goals, and this is our prediction for Tuesday.
