Derek McInnes is optimistic about his Aberdeen side's chances of going through against Apollon and reaching the play-off stage.

"We go over there with desire and confidence that we can get the result we want," he said.

"I think we can always score regardless of the opposition.

"We have to be ready for them to have more possession than they did tonight and we have to be ready for the hot temperatures.

"But we have got results away from home - and in hot temperatures.

"It could have been more, but we'll take the 2-1 and see if we can finish the job next week."
