Larnaca vs Shkendija

🟢 Shkendija or Draw (Double Chance)

Larnaca come into this fixture in reasonable form but are struggling to turn performances into wins. They’ve managed just one victory in their last five matches, drawing the other four, which highlights a lack of cutting edge.

Shkendija, on the other hand, arrive in excellent shape having won all three of their previous three matches. With Larnaca’s strong draw trend and Shkendija’s current momentum, backing the visitors to avoid defeat looks the value play.
