Videoton and AEK Athens meet at Groupama Arena, in a match for this phase of the UEFA Champions League (Play-offs). This will be the first direct confrontation between these two teams, as they have never faced each other before. Particular attention is required for the home / away condition, since both teams present significantly different results at home and abroad.

Videoton:

The home team reaches this stage of the UEFA Champions League (Play-offs) after having played previous qualifiers with: Malmö, Ludogorets and F91 Dudelange. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 22 goals scored and 11 conceded; against 11 wins and 4 draws in their stadium, with 27 goals scored and 6 suffered. In the last match that they played, for NB I, they won against Honvéd by (0-3). In the last 10 home matches Videoton has won 6 and tied 4.

For this competition, they have not lost any of the last 6 games.

The Videoton leaves for this motivated game, after having won the Honved, in a match for the Bulgarian Championship. We remember that Videoton beat Malmo in the final round of the Champions League, but only because of the goal scored away from home in the 1-1 draw. In this game against the fans, coach Marko Nikolic must play in 4-4-2, benefiting possession of the ball and organized attacks, mainly by the flanks, however, and by playing against a more complicated opponent, he must act with a more direct strategy. Apparently, there are no weight absences to register.

AEK Athens:

The visiting team reaches this stage of the UEFA Champions League (Play-offs) after a home win by (2-1) and a draw by (1-1) with Celtic. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 7 draws and 2 losses in away matches, with 18 goals scored and 7 conceded; against 12 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss at their stadium, with 26 goals scored and 8 conceded. In the last 10 away matches AEK Athens has 3 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 25 of the last 56 matches have ended with Under 1,5 goals and 37 out of 56 ended with Under 2,5 goals.

Athens AEK, a team from Greece, reach this stage of the Champions League after beating the historic Celtic, much for the victory in the second leg, by 2-1: the goals were scored by Marko Livaja and Rodrigo Galo. In this first game against the Videotón, coach Marinos Ouzounidis must opt ​​for a very defensive strategy, with a low block, looking only for the counterattack. André Simões is the great highlight of the AEK Athens, being a very important player in the team’s style of play, since he is very strong in the creation and organization of the offensive process. Everything indicates that the coach can count on all the players at his disposal.
