Cyprus are at the bottom of Group A after playing and losing one match; they will look to get their first points on board when they go one on one against Georgia on Saturday at 19:45 GMT.
Key Highlights
Cyprus opened their Group A action with a trip to Scotland, which ended in a 3-0 defeat, and a man sent off in the 95th minute. They showed little defensive solidity in this match while creating precious little. In their second match against Georgia on Saturday, Cyprus are expected to bolster their form and levels to enhance their chances of taking three points.
Georgia are also on one match in Group A. They opened their account in a home clash with Norway, which ended in a 1-1 stalemate. Georgia were forced to come from behind to draw level in the 60th minute via Georges Mikautadze after Alexander Sorloth had given Norway the lead in the 15th minute. The focus for Georgia on Saturday will be to retain their solidity, making it difficult for Cyprus to create chances.
