APOEL have opted to hand starts to the attacking talents of Tomas De Vincenti and Vander as they take on Astana in the second leg of their Champions League playoff.
The home side will also be bolstered by the midfield industry of Constantinos Makrides and Semir Stilic as they look to overturn a one-goal disadvantage against their visitors.
Travelling Astana are to be led by a frontline consisting solely of Baurzhan Dzholchiyev, while further attacking support is to come from Roger Canas and Tanat Nuserbayev.
Stanimir Stoilov's side will be marshalled by a defensive pairing of Nemanja Maksimovic and Marin Anicic at the back.
