Giannis Petrakis sat down and watched yesterday's Anorthosis cup match with Karmiotissa, but he knows that Timur Ketspaia's regular approach to his own team, next Monday, will be different. He also knows that the “Lady” put two new players in its squad in January, Risvani and Busulanjic, who are not unknown to him from their presence in the Super League.
The two aforementioned were not present at the match in Tsirio on January 3, when Apollon made the impressive upset during the second half. Specifically, he lost 0-2 at halftime, but managed to “roll” it with 3-2. The blue and whites had also defeated the “Lady” at home in the game of the first round with 1-3, but in that match on the bench was Sofronis Augustis. It is self-evident how Από Apollos will be pressed for victory (something that also applies to Anorthosis) in next Monday's derby in Larnaca.
Especially if they get the three-pointers in their own games, AEL with AEK on Friday and Omonia the next day with Olympiakos. We expect, however, that Giannis Petrakis will do it more conservatively, obviously taking his “lesson” from the recent derby with AEL, where he had downloaded a more aggressive team. It is rather impossible for Matei and Biseswar to fit in the starting lineup again, as he did in the match with the blue and yellows.
The punished Saketi does not play, the dominant player to play is Hampos Kyriakou. If we take it for granted that Biseswar will be a midfielder, then the 3rd place on the axis will be claimed by the Serbs Denic and Markovic. Dutch center-forward Charlie Bensop will also be out of the plans.
