Legia entered Poland’s Ekstraklasa with 1:3 defeat to Gornik Z. while in the UEFA Champions League the side has thrashed Finland’s Mariehamn with 3:0, 6:0 scorelines and promoted to the tournament’s qualification round without any difficulty. As for their performance on the road, in 2017 Legia gained eight victories, one draw and two losses in 11 matches.
The rivals have never played against each other before. FC Astana are the well-known home team in Europe, therefore, I believe that the hosting side won’t at least lose in Wednesday clash as it shows not so strong football at away grounds and it has to do its best at the home field to get a positive outcome before its visit to Poland. The Kazakh side has at least not to lose as a loss would mean they leave the tournament with 99.9% probability after the reverse fixture.
Prediction for the match: FC Astana to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
