AEK, having beaten Zorya with a score 4:1 in the last match, won the first victory in the Europa League group. Now the Greeks have 3 points on their account and they retain chances of reaching the playoffs. If they beat the Ukrainians in the upcoming match and in a parallel match Leicester will cope with Braga, then Carrera’s charges will be equal in points with the Portuguese. Then the fate of the second ticket to the playoffs will be decided in the remaining 2 rounds. It should be noted that AEK is showing weak results at home in the Europa League. In the last 8 matches they managed to win only 1 time, with 5 draws and 2 losses. In addition, 7 out of 8 games came to an end with a bet on “both will score – yes”. We will add that within these 8 fights the Greeks managed to keep their gates locked only in one. On November 22nd, after an international pause AEK played a match against Larisa (4:1) at home. Victory confirms that the eagles are in good shape for European competitions.
Lokomotiv has a very weak season in the Premier League. Marko Nikolic’s team is at risk of dropping out of the race for a ticket to the Champions League without fully participating in it. At the moment Lokomotiv is in eighth place in the Premier League with 24 points in the asset, being three points behind the fourth Dynamo and seven points behind the second Zenit. In the Champions League Lokomotiv has local successes. In the first round it managed to catch a 2:2 draw with Salzburg, which is of great importance in the context of the fight for third place. The Russians can hardly dream of more. In the last round the “railroad workers” sensationally took away points from “Atl?tico”. A 1:1 draw allowed them to remain on the second line in the quartet.
