Legia vs Spartak: prediction for the Europa League match
Legia beat Spartak in the first round of the tournament, will the Red-Whites be able to get revenge on December 9? The answer is in our prediction.
Command Analysis
Legia Warszawa
PolandLegia ended up in a difficult Europa League group with Spartak, Napoli and Leicester, so Polish side was considered a clear underdog. But in the first round, when Czeslaw Michniewicz was in charge of the team, Army Men recorded a sensational away victory over Spartak (1:0). In the second round Legia secured another positive result, beating Leicester (1:0) at home.
But Polish champion failed to retain that form for the whole tournament - in two matches against Napoli Legia suffered defeats. In the most recent match The Army Men were beaten by Leicester (1:3) on an away match and found themselves at the bottom of the standings with six points in the asset, but a victory over Spartak will bring a play-off spot to the Polish team.
Spartak Moscow
Russian FederationSpartak got off to a poor start of the season - they were eliminated from the Champions League qualification and gave away many points in the Russian Premier League. A 0:1 defeat to Legia in the first round of Europa League was unexpected, but not too surprising, because The Red-Whites were already looking weak in domestic league and it seemed like Rui Vitoria, who took over the team during the summer, was doomed.
But a second round match against Napoli became a decisive moment for the Portuguese manager. Spartak managed to beat the 10-men Napoli (3:2) and in the next round Spartak put up a good performance in a home match against Leicester, but eventually succumbed to the opponent (3:4).
Then the Red-Whites managed to snatch a draw at Leicester (1:1) and in the most recent round recorded another victory over Napoli (2:1), rising to the 2nd spot in the group. But Spartak still can finish the tournament at the bottom, so team needs to at least avoid defeat in the match against Legia.

Tip and bets
Legia are having a terrible season - team was considered a title contender, but now the Army Men are in the relegation zone at Ekstraklasa, losing game after game. So far Marek Golebiewski is unable to get the team out of the slump, so Spartak will have a chance to pick up points. The Red-Whites already proved their ability to show a good performance in important matches, so they should be able to get revenge over out-of-form Legia.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (0) on Spartak
Legia lost six out of eight most recent matches in all competitions and even a change of head coach brought no positive result, club is still looking in a terrible form. Spartak also have not been perfect lately, but they are still a favourite, so The Red-Whites should be able to get the three points today, but it surely won't be an easy game.
Our second bet is on Spartak to win by one goal
