AEK Team News
AEK is entering the new season following an exceptionally successful previous year, where they secured a double crown for the third time in their history. In the league, they clinched the championship title with a five-point lead over the second-placed Panathinaikos, while in the Cup final, they outperformed PAOK with a score of 2-0, despite playing with one less player from the 6th minute of the match.
Regarding the Champions League qualifications, AEK managed to eliminate Zagreb’s Dinamo in the third round with an overall score of 4-3, a clash that stirred significant controversy within the football community, primarily due to off-field incidents.
In the first match of the final round of Champions League qualification, AEK suffered a 1-0 defeat in Belgium against Antwerp, even though they left a much better impression than the home team. As Wednesday approaches, we anticipate an even more remarkable performance from them, as is often the case when they play in front of their home fans.
Antwerp Team News
Just like AEK, Antwerp also clinched the double crown in Belgium last season. In the league, they secured the title in the final round by playing to a 2-2 draw against Genk, their main competitor for the championship. They ended the competition with a one-point lead over Genk.
In the Belgian Cup final, they defeated KV Mechelen with a 2-0 score, and they also bested the same team in the Super Cup after a better penalty shootout performance. However, the current champions didn’t start the new Jupiler Pro League season on the best note.
They’ve recorded two wins, one loss, and one draw, currently holding the seventh spot on the table with a match in hand compared to most other teams. In the previous round, they played to a 1-1 draw against Leuven in an away match.

AEK vs Antwerp Prediction
Both teams will approach the match with caution, as a single goal from either side would add extra pressure on the opposing team. Looking at the previous match in Athens between AEK and Dinamo, the combination of both teams scoring on Wednesday seems like a good option for this match.
