Gent to Win at Half Time and Full Time
After a win against Flora in Tallinn in the first round, Gent has a chance to get into a great starting position with a win over Anorthosis. The Cyprian team is weaker on paper and they've lost at home in the first round to Partizan Belgrade. With Gent hosting this game, we can see them taking an early lead and holding to it until the end of the game.
Under 2.5 Total Goals
While Gent is certainly capable of scoring and conceding at a high rate since they are averaging 3.11 goals per game in the Belgian Jupiler league this season, we don't see this game going over 2.5 total goals. Both teams have gone under 2.5 total goals in their first matches in the Europa Conference League groups and we expect this trend to continue in their upcoming duel.
Both Teams to Score – No
Since we don't expect to see a lot of goals in this game, we also don't expect both teams to score either. In fact, we don't expect Anorthosis to score, but we chose this prediction over Gent to keep a clean sheet simply to minimize the risk. After all, the odds on this bet are pretty satisfactory as well. In any case, we didn't see both teams score in the first games in the group and that's another reason why we don't see this happening here.

Gent
Despite being one of the better teams in the Belgian Jupiler league, Gent didn't have the best start in that competition. With three wins, two draws, and four losses, the team is sitting in the 13th spot in the standings after the first nine rounds. Meanwhile, Gent started the group stages of the Europa Conference League with a win over Flora and they have a chance to secure their position if they can beat Anorthosis. Odjidja-Ofoe is due to miss this game due to an injury, while Hjulsager and Bruno are questionable.
Anorthosis
After securing their spot in the group stages in the ECL with a win over Hapoel Beer Sheva in the last round of qualifications, Anorthosis started the competition with a loss at home to Partizan Belgrade. The team also didn't have the best start of the season in the Cyprian league either, losing two of their first three games and getting only one win in the process. On the bright side, only Hambardzumyan is injured at the club right now.
