Apoel vs Celje Prediction 20 February 2025
🔊 How easily can the Cypriots finish what they started? In the second leg of the Conference League play-off, APOEL and Celje will face off. Their first encounter ended in a 2:2 draw, which definitely benefits those who are now set to play at home. APOEL was initially considered the favorite in this matchup, and the draw result in Slovenia only solidified this status. From this prediction, you will learn what to bet on in the upcoming match.
Head-to-Head
The only match between APOEL and Celje did not determine a winner, ending with a score of 2:2.
Head-to-head statistics Apoel - Celje
APOEL Nikosia Team Overview
APOEL experienced an extremely unsuccessful streak during which the team could not win for four games. In the first match against Celje (2:2), they failed to break it, but in the Cyprus championship game, they achieved a long-awaited victory over AEL (2:1). And the latest results can indeed be called good, as they provided a chance to advance to the Conference League Round of 16 and secure a spot in the top 6 of the Cyprus championship.
Match Results: APOEL Nikosia
NK Celje Team Overview
After the break, Celje has been showing extremely lackluster play, failing to win any of their last four games. Therefore, the draw with APOEL (2:2) in the first match can even be considered a success for the Slovenian team. With such results, it will be very difficult for the team to compete for high positions in the domestic league as well as for a spot in the next stage of the European competition.
Match Results: NK Celje
⚽️ Goals Prediction
In the first match, the teams displayed excellent conversion of chances, squeezing the maximum out of almost every opportunity. Throughout the season, both APOEL and Celje have played quite openly and effectively, so a bet on Total goals over 2.5 looks promising.
🚩 Corners Prediction
The statistics for both teams have become more modest, largely due to their head-to-head encounter. On average, APOEL's matches feature eight corners, while Celje's average is 9.1 corners. However, together these clubs earned only four corner kicks in their last meeting. Therefore, a bet on Total corners under 9.5 seems reasonable.
Editorial Prediction
APOEL should be satisfied with the result of the first match. A draw away allows the Cypriots to maintain excellent chances of advancing to the Round of 16 in the Conference League, especially considering Celje's poor form recently. The hosts should easily confirm their status as favorites in this matchup. We predict that APOEL will win with a score of 2:1.
However, the match is unlikely to be without a significant number of goals, as both teams play too openly, and their conversion rate is usually solid. Therefore, we are betting on Total goals over 2.5.
