Legia Warszawa made it two wins from the final two games of their pre-season as they cruised to a resounding 5-1 victory over Polish side Gornik Leczna last Friday.

This followed a 1-0 win over Jablonec on June 30, a result which saw their run of four consecutive games without victory in all competitions come to an end.

Despite finishing fifth in the Polish top flight last season, Legia have booked their spot in the Europa League qualifiers courtesy of a thrilling 4-3 victory over Pogoń Szczecin in the Polish Cup final on May 2.

Like the home side, Aktobe turned in another solid team display last time out when they picked up a 2-0 home victory over Atyrau in the Kazakhstan Premier League last time out.

Before that, Vyacheslav Levchuk’s men snapped their four-game winless run on June 29 thanks to a 3-0 victory over FC Turan at Turkestan Arena.

Aktobe have picked up 32 points from their 16 Premier League matches this season to sit third in the standings, five points behind leaders Astana.

Legia Warszawa vs FK Aktobe Prediction

Aktobe have upped the ante in recent weeks, but they are in for a tough 90 minutes against a significantly superior Legia Warszawa side in Poland.

Given the gulf in quality and depth between the two teams, we are backing Iordanescu’s men to secure a comfortable victory in front of their home crowd.
