AEK Athens vs Leicester City
UEFA Europa League
Date: Thursday, October 29, 2024
Start at 17.55 in the UK
Venue: Olympiako Stadio Spyros Louis, Athens.

AEK Athens were easily beaten in the first game of the Europa League group stage last week in Portugal, so they have no choice but to try to win against Leicester City.

The Foxes have been in great form of late, even managing to beat Arsenal in London on Sunday. They could take a big step towards securing the UEL playoffs with a possible victory in Athens.

Bookmakers marked the visitors as favorites to snatch the three points at odds of 1,70. Which is no surprise, considering AEK have only won one of their last four competition matches.

AEK Athens vs Leicester City Prediction

AEK Athens had some brilliant games during qualifying for this competition. It looks like the one leg format was great for them, managing to eliminate Wolfsburg and St Gallen. However, the situation in the Greek Super League is far from ideal. The Black and Yellow Capitals are currently fourth after picking up 10 points from five games. The winless streak in the domestic market ended on Sunday with a 1-0 victory over PAS Giannina. Karim Ansarifard was the only scorer.

As for their opponents, Leicester City have had periods of great form and some shocking defeats so far. They struggle with consistency but are still not far from the top of the Premier League.

The Foxes are 4th on 12 points, which is just one behind table leaders Everton. We are sure we will have a great season in the EPL as Leicester will be the underdogs once again.

After missing a few games, Jamie Vardy returned against Arsenal and scored the winning goal. We believe this will lead the Athens team to another victory.
