Team News: AEK Larnaka
There’s just one fitness concern for the AEK Larnaka manager Panagiotis Giannou to be concerned with from an otherwise fully-primed group. Andreas Paraskevas (Ruptured cruciate ligament) will miss out.
After joining from Osasuna in the summer, Oier was one of three summer signings to make his debut for Larnaka in the first leg, and expected to retain his place for Tuesday's contest.
Kenan Piric and Rafa Lopes were the other two individuals who made their debuts, with the former starting in goal, while Lopes made a substitute appearance.
Victor Olatunji is set to lead the line, while Imad Faraj and last week's goalscorer Gyurcso will provide the width for the Larnaka.
We are thinking that Coach Kitrinoprasinoi may start with lineup 4-2-3-1 formation for the game.
