Omonia Nicosia vs Salzburg - home win at 11/10.
I really fancy Omonia for this game and I'm just hoping that last year's Salzburg doesn't turn up to burn me here! However, I'm starting to have a lot of faith in this wealthy Cypriot outfit and I'm starting to lose faith in a Salzburg side devoid of target man Janko so I do favour the hosts here. Omonia have already stated their intent by demolising Renova Dzepciste of the Republic of Macedonia 5-0 on aggregate in the previous qualifying round. Whereas I expected a comfortable home win for the Cypriots, I thought they'd have a much tougher away leg at an intimidating venue but the Cypriots showed their growing class and just why they are reputed to be the best team in Cyprus by winning with ease again. The intense humidity in Cyprus tonight will play largely into the hands of the hosts as their visitors just won't be used to playing in this weather condition. Omonia's squad is packed with experience from the likes of ex-Newcastle striker Lua-Lua, ex-Olympiakos Piraeus utility man Patsatzoglou, ex-Barcelona defenders Victor and Iago Bouzon, Cypriot international target man Konstantinou, and they even have the youthful input of ex-Arsenal youngster Efrem. Omonia have an awful lot going for them at the moment and I really fancy them to do well today as a result. Salzburg are a good side on their day but they've not convinced me at all so far this season. I think that they're lucky the game with Wacker Innsbruck was rained off because they had a nightmarish game against the newcomers and I'm quite confident that they'd have struggled. Let's not forget that the only game Salzburg have scored in this season was at home to Faroese outfit HB Torshavn with the Austrians failing to score in the return leg and at a mediocre SV Kapfenberg. Their attack is far too predictable and ineffectual without Marc Janko and I just don't see how they'll take anything from the game without a clear and concise Plan B which they just don't have. For me, this game has "home win" written all over it although I must emphasise caution as Salzburg can be a really funny opponent in European football. Nonetheless, there does appear to be value on the home win tonight.
Verdict: Omonia Nicosia to win at 11/10.

Temperature is 37 degrees and the humidity is 59%.. Hard to believe that the humidity is less than Istanbul. But this means that the exact temperature will be 40-41 degrees with humidity. I disagree with those , who think that it's already hot in central europe. This may not be a decisive factor while picking the winner , but ''hot in Cyprus'' and ''hot in Austrian Alpines'' is not same. Whatever , GL with your bet.

plus they are playing at 7pm so I would assume that the temperature would be more around 30 if not lower at that time

Salzburg have not convinced him this season? They have only played 1 league game. Janko has also been replaced with a uruguayian who scored lots of goals for Newells in Argentina last season. I was liking Salzburg's price tonight

RB S looked horrible agaisnt the Faraoe isles team that beat them 1-0(albeit theyd won 1st leg at home 5-0) but they barely took a shot(possibly a favour for the home side im not sure but i really didnt like them one bit)
As noted above the Cypriots are a classy little outfit for their size with some decent class players(they aitn short of money at the club either)I expect them to put RBS(not the feckin bank) right on the back foot and i also expect them to score.They're more than capable of putting one over the big boys too (at home)if they were to progress,one to keep an eye out for. Having said all that though i'm gonna play safe and lay RBS and cover with a couple of correct scores as they are capable of of dragging out a 0-0 if it gets to HT i'd say.They dont have much upfront and heres hoping the inevitable home side early doors domination pays off with a goal. Just one note though RBS are not a mug side by any means,hence why i'd tread easy on the home win. |

narrow home win, it's already arranged! Salzburg will hammer them next week at home!
|
|
By:
should of waited closer to kick off to get an accurate weathter forcast really
home side have got some classy players mind maybe laying red bull was the better call but sticking with home win, they need a result to take with them |
|
By:
draw written all over it salzburg will just sit back and dont think nicosia will break them down also keeping no scorer on my side
|
|
By:
any team who gets to the CL qualification are good.
But its a cyprotic team and 2.18 is way too low imo, should be closer to 2.5 |

By:
If the real temperature is around 30c in Cyprus, Salzurg can handle that right?
|
|
By:
dont think thre be trying to hard imo, they will be happy with a 0-0 or 1-0
|
|
By:
home team still shortening up as well, so who knows what the real temp is.
i'd wait until kick off and see where the price is |
