Spartak Moskva Legia Warszawa betting prediction

The away team comes to this group stage after having eliminated Slavia Praha, with a home win by (2‑1) and a away tie by (2‑2). In their last match, for the Ekstraklasa, they got an away loss against Śląsk Wrocław by (1‑0). In the last 10 away matches Legia Warszawa has won 5, tied 2 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 12 of the last 25 matches have ended with Under 1,5 goals and 16 out of 25 have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 13 matches, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 9 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 4 of their 10 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Legia comes unmotivated to this performance after a 1-0 away loss, at Slask Wroclaw's stadium. Thus, Legia seems to be going through a bad moment, as they record two consecutive defeats. Contrary to the “enemy” of this match, the visiting team must act in a tactical system in 5-2-3, with the objective of trying to take advantage of the counterattacks. In any case, it's foreseeable that Legia will adopt a more defensive strategy, acting away, as they present less arguments regarding the “enemy” of this journey in the group stage of the Champions League. Coach Czeslaw Michniewicz won’t count on the midfielder Bartosz Kapustka as he is recovering from a torn cruciate ligaments.

Confirmed Lineup: Artur Boruc, Artur Jędrzejczyk, Filip Mladenović, Mateusz Wieteska, Mattias Johansson, Maik Nawrocki, Bartosz Ślisz, Josué, Ihor Kharatin, Luquinhas, Mahir Emreli.
Coach: G. Feio.
