Where it pulls both ways. It pulls both ways: AEK Larnaca are the stronger side on form and the table, but the meetings favour AC Omonia Nicosia. On goals, their goals for and against point to a tight game; their records put over 2.5 goals at 55%; seven of the last ten meetings went under 2.5, and the meetings settle it.
The case against. AEK Larnaca's record still gives them 31% to win. Not everything agrees on goals: their records put over 2.5 goals at 55%.

Backup: 2nd Half - Over/Under: Over 0.5 at 1.21. It often rescues the bet, but it is no guarantee. Leave: Over 1.5 Goals (no overs on a tight read); Over 0.5 Goals (no overs on a tight read).
