We said: Pafos FC 2-1 Elfsborg (Elfsborg win 4-2 on aggregate)

Pafos need to score three goals without reply just to take the game into extra time, but we cannot envisage such a scenario given that Elfsborg have netted 11 times in their last three matches. The Yellow Ones are not amazing on the road typically and could lose on the night, but the Swedes have a large enough lead on aggregate to cruise into the next stage. Read more.
