Keeper Beqaj keeps Anorthosis waiting

Anorthosis Famagusta FC could be deprived of their No1 goalkeeper Arian Beqaj for the visit of Werder Bremen in Group B on Wednesday as the Albanian international nurses an injured finger.

Possible qualification
Beqaj has not played since straining a muscle in the 3-3 draw with FC Internazionale Milano on 4 November, but returned to training this week in a bid to reclaim his place for today's league game at Apollon Limassol FC. The 33-year-old damaged a finger in yesterday's session, however, and looks a doubt for the visit of Bremen – meaning a possible first start in the UEFA Champions League for Hungarian Zoltán Nagy. Anorthosis would secure a first knockout round spot if they win and Inter do likewise at home to Panathinaikos FC.
