Gomel will host Aris Thessaloniki at the Kleanthis Vikelidis Stadium in the second leg of the Europa Conference League second qualifying round on Wednesday night.
Gomel have a mountain to climb in the second leg after suffering a 5-1 defeat to Aris in the first leg. Reversing that huge loss seems nearly impossible considering that they will be hosting Aris at Aris’ home ground. The Belarusian club are using Kleanthis Vikelidis as their home venue due to the political situation back home.
Gomel have not been in action since the first leg and thus will be well rested, although they have been in a poor form failing to win any of their last four games across all competitions.
Meanwhile Aris got themselves in the best place to advance to the next round of the Conference League qualification campaign after the five goal win in the first leg.
Considering that they will technically be playing at home again, Aris should maximally fancy their chances. While they have not been in action since the first leg, Aris are in a good form having now won all their last three games and will looking to extend the run on Wednesday.
