Team Analysis
FC Kairat Almaty has performed exceptionally well in the Kazakhstan Premier League, currently tied with Astana for 40 points and ranking 2nd in the league. They have demonstrated strong capabilities in their domestic league, with their last league match being a 3-1 away victory over Tobol. However, in the first leg of the Champions League qualifiers, they suffered a 0-2 away loss to KuPS, putting them under immense pressure for the second leg. Kairat Almaty performs strongly when playing at home; in previous Champions League qualifying campaigns, they have won all four of their home matches, three of them by exactly two goals. KuPS is currently ranked 3rd in the Finnish Veikkausliiga (31 points from 17 matches). They have shown consistent performance in their domestic league, with their last league match being a 1-1 away draw against VPS. In the first leg of the Champions League qualifiers, KuPS secured a 2-0 home victory over Kairat Almaty, gaining a significant advantage. KuPS has lost only 4 of their 18 away games in 2025, with only two of those defeats by margins greater than one goal, demonstrating their resilience on the road.
Player Situation
There are no current reports of significant injuries or suspensions for key players from either FC Kairat Almaty or KuPS. Élder Santana and Giorgi Zaria are key attacking players for Kairat Almaty. Mohamed Toure and Jaakko Oksanen scored for KuPS in the first leg and will be key players for Kairat Almaty's defense to mark.
Nowgoal Prediction
Overall, Kairat Almaty possesses strong comeback capabilities at home, having performed excellently in their previous Champions League qualifying home matches. However, KuPS holds a two-goal advantage from the first leg and has also shown solid defensive capabilities in away games. Considering that Kairat Almaty must go all out on offense to overturn the deficit, this might leave space for KuPS to counter-attack. A bold prediction is that while Kairat Almaty will secure a home victory, it will not be enough to overturn the aggregate score, and KuPS will successfully advance.
Prediction: Kairat Almaty win (2-1)
