Oracle of DelphiFC Pyunik - Derry City
July 24th 2007 23:25
First leg match one week ago finished with goalless draw 0:0. Derry City was better team most of the time and practically they didn’t allow a single goal chance for FC Pyunik. Derry dominated especially in the second half of the match and only luck saved FC Pyunik from defeat.
In the mean time Derry had one match in domestic league with Bohemians and that match also finished 0:0. Derry’s players comes to Yerevan with full confidence because they overplayed opponents in the first match. They will be reinforced with great centre-half Darren Kelly who should make defense impenetrable for Pyunik attacks. Derry’s coach will have almost best squad to choose for this important game as only doubt is Gary Beckett.
Probable: Jennings, McCallion, Kelly, Oman, Hutton, McGlynn , Molloy, Martyn, McCourt, Farren , Morrow .
Armenian side is not team with great tradition as they are only 16 years old. They could be considered as slight favorites because they have good result from the first match, but they showed less than Derry and in my opinion they have lack of quality compared to Irish team. However, I expect strong defensive performances from FC Pyunik and probably low scoring match.
In my opinion both teams have same chance to advance in second round and to take a part in match against Donetsk. Derry City is certainly team with better players potential but they could have certain problems with extremely hot temperatures in Armenia. However, I believe they are good enough to stay unbeaten in Yerevan. My pick is Derry City AHC 0.5 ( 1.89 @ Pinnacle)
BET LOST Pyunik - Derry 2:0
