Tuesday's Champions League predictions including Panathinaikos vs. Dnipro-1

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Champions League fixtures, including Panathinaikos vs. Dnipro-1.

Fresh from a dominant two-goal win in the first leg of their Champions League second qualifying round clash, Panathinaikos host a beleaguered Dnipro-1 side in Tuesday's return fixture at the Leoforos Alexandras Stadium.

Ivan Jovanovic's men ran out 3-1 victors during their opening showdown, which was played on neutral territory in Slovakia as conflict continues to rage in Dnipro-1's homeland.

We say: Panathinaikos 2-0 Dnipro-1 (Panathinaikos win 5-1 on aggregate)


Having already asserted their dominance over Dnipro on neutral ground, Panathinaikos should make lightning strike twice on home soil to cruise into the third round of Champions League qualifying.

Boasting a richer continental history and wider array of international talent, the Greens will not expect to encounter many roadblocks en route to the next stage, although Marseille will prove a very different kettle of fish.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

BATE vs. Aris Limassol (Tuesday, 7.00pm)

After a crushing victory in last week's home leg, Aris Limassol aim to finish the job on Tuesday, when they meet BATE Borisov to conclude the clubs' Champions League qualifying tie.

Smashing six past the Belarusian champions leaves Aris with one foot in the third round and on course to continue their debut campaign in Europe's top club competition.

We say: BATE Borisov 1-1 Aris Limassol (Aris Limassol win 7-3 on aggregate)


Having kicked off the first leg as something of an unknown quantity at Champions League level, Aris have already showed they can make progress in this summer's qualifiers. BATE may have the advantage of being deep into their domestic season, but without the benefit of playing on home soil they will come up short on Tuesday.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Ljubljana vs. Ludogorets (Tuesday, 7.00pm)

With it all to play for in the second leg of their Champions League second-round qualifying tie, NK Olimpija Ljubljana and Ludogorets Razgrad square off at Stozice Stadium on Tuesday.

The two group-stage hopefuls each earned a slice of the spoils in a 1-1 draw last week, and the midweek victors will advance to meet either Galatasaray or Zalgiris in the third round.

We say: NK Olimpija Ljubljana 2-1 Ludogorets Razgrad (Olimpija win 3-2 on aggregate)


Nothing could separate these two outfits last week, and a similarly tight affair should be in store in Ljubljana, where Ludogorets should no doubt benefit from their weekend break.

The absences of Nedyalkov and Duah is not what the doctor ordered for Petev, though, and with Olimpija hotshot Fadida aiming to continue his stellar streak in front of the home crowd, we can envisage the Slovenian champions coming up trumps to progress.

Slovan Bratislava vs. Zrinjski Mostar (Tuesday, 7.30pm)

Holding a slim advantage from last week's first leg, Slovan Bratislava seek to secure their place in the Champions League's third qualifying round when they reconvene with Zrinjski Mostar on Tuesday.

One-nil winners in Bosnia, the Slovakian champions will play host at Stadion Tehelne Pole, where they were surprisingly held to a draw by Luxembourg's Swift Hesperange in the first round.

We say: Slovan Bratislava 1-0 Zrinjski Mostar (Slovan Bratislava win 2-0 on aggregate)


With an impressive recent record of keeping clean sheets, Slovan Bratislava can defend their lead and perhaps even extend it; sealing progress to the third round. So for the second year running, Zrinjski will see their European adventure ended by Slovakia's most successful club.
