AEK Larnaca and Aberdeen will trade tackles in a UEFA Conference League fixture on Thursday (November 6th). The game will be played at AEK Arena.
The home side are coming into the clash on the back of a 2-1 comeback away win over Apollon Limassol in the Cypriot League over the weekend. All three goals were scored after the break, with Josef Kvida putting the hosts ahead four minutes into the second half while Marcus Rohden equalized two minutes later. Jairo Izquierdo scored the match-winner with 10 minutes left on the clock.
Aberdeen, meanwhile, claimed maximum points with a 1-0 away win over Kilmarnock in the Scottish Premiership. Stuart Armstrong broke the deadlock in the 18th minute and his goal proved to be the difference between the two sides.
The Dons will turn their focus to the continent, where their last game saw them suffer a 6-0 thrashing away to AEK Athens. Larnaca claimed a shock 1-0 away win over Crystal Palace. The victory means they are one of six sides to have a 100% winning record after two games. Aberdeen are bottom of the standings, one of six sides on zero points.
