Omonia vs Aris Match Preview

Omonia Nicosia welcomes Aris Limassol in the fourth match of the second round of the Cypriot championship.

The hosts are coming off a 1-1 away draw at home to Paphos in the first semi-final of the cup. The greens took the lead only in the fourth minute, but Paphos equalized in stoppage time, taking advantage of the numerical advantage they had in the last quarter. Undoubtedly, Omonia will use the league matches to prepare as best as possible for the 2nd leg of the cup, while taking care not to have any injuries to their important players.

The visitors, on the other hand, won in their most recent match 1-0 against their compatriot Apollon, making the most out of the draw in the AEK - APOEL match. The "light brigade" moved up to second place playing attractive football and are now just two points behind first place. Aris Limassol, on the other hand, is in very good shape, now counting ten games in a row without defeat, and winning the championship seems more possible than ever.

In conclusion, I think that the match will have a one-sided motivation since the Limassolians are in the battle for the title while Omonia are out of goals in the league but focused on the Cup. I believe that the hosts do not want the eternal rival APOEL to win the championship and a loss to Aris will not harm their psychology. I will bet 5 units on away win dnb at odds of 1.57.
