- Competition: Europa League
- Date: 17th July 2025
- Kick-off: 20:00 UK / 21:00 CEST
- Venue: Partizan Stadium
An intriguing game awaits us on Thursday night in Belgrade, where Partizan Belgrade host AEK Larnaca for the second leg of the Europa League's first qualifying round.
The first leg took place in Athens a week ago, with the home side Larnaca making the most of playing on their own turf. The Yellow-Greens secured all three points through a second-half strike from Enzo Cabrera in what was a close game.
Partizan can easily overturn the tie on Thursday in front of their fans, as they only need to win by a one-goal margin. However, Srđan Blagojević’s team have been inconsistent at the Partizan Stadium recently, winning only two of the last seven matches and shipped four goals in the last two.
Larnaca themselves cannot be considered favourites, as they have had their fair share of issues away from home lately. The visitors are without a win in their last four away games, having lost two and failed to score on three occasions. Nevertheless, the Guardians will be encouraged by the fact that they avoided defeat in their last five games across all competitions.
Partizan Belgrade vs AEK Larnaca Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
Larnaka have relied heavily on their defence over the last couple of months. They kept a clean sheet in five of their last seven matches, and their defensive record away from home has also been impressive. Blagojević’s team have conceded only three goals in their last three away games, with bets on under 2.5 goals winning in all these matches.
