AEK Athens Preview – Can AEK set record straight?

Greek side, AEK Athens, were dealt a heavy 3-0 defeat away from home at Sporting Braga in last week’s Matchday 1 clash in the Europa League but although they return to the more familiar surroundings of their Olympiako Stadio Spyros Louis, they’ll be up against Premier League opposition in the shape of Leicester City on Thursday night.

Recent form and results have been a bit ‘hit-and-miss’ for AEK as the hosts have registered just five wins out of their last 12 matches in all competitions, and although they recorded wins in the qualifying rounds of the Europa League against St Gallen and Wolfsburg, they lost last time out against Sporting Braga.

However, having lost just twice in their last 17 ties overall in the Europa League and just once in their last eight at home, AEK Athens are a stubborn unit to shift at this level.

Our betting suggestion:

Leicester City Preview – Can Leicester win three on trot?

Recent back-to-back wins for Thursday night’s visitors, Leicester City, will see Brendan Rodgers’s side head over to Greece in confident mood that they can record a third win on the trot in this Matchday 2 clash following wins against Zorya 3-0 at home and their weekend 1-0 win away at Arsenal in the Premier League.

After a dismal period of results away from home for The Foxes as they failed to win on the road in eight matches in all competitions, Leicester City have since won their last three away matches on the trot which includes victories at West Brom, Manchester City and the aforementioned result at Arsenal.

Although Leicester City possess limited experience at Europa League level, the recent wins on the road at Manchester City and Arsenal should give the visitors a timely boost for this clash in Athens.
