Omonia Nicosia vs Qarabag Prediction

The two sides have compact, low-block styles of play and this means that the game could be one of very few goalscoring chances.

Qarabag have been the more consistent side in recent weeks but Omonia will be banking on their strong home form to see them through. Although a goalless draw is the most likely result, we fancy the visitors to do enough to nick a narrow victory.

Prediction: Omonia Nicosia 0-1 Qarabag
