Aris Thessaloniki are preparing for the decisive second leg of their UEFA Conference League qualifier against Araz Naxcivan at the Kleanthis Vikelidis Stadium. The Greek side suffered a 2-1 loss in the first leg, conceding twice in the final 15 minutes after initially taking the lead, with Loren Morón scoring Aris’s only goal[1][6].
This recent defeat continues a trend of underwhelming pre-season form for Aris, who lost three out of four friendly matches, their single win coming against Anorthosis Famagusta on July 17[1]. Despite these setbacks, Aris maintain hope, having won their last three competitive matches at home and remaining unbeaten at home in their last seven matches since January[1].
Transfer activity and squad updates also remain a point of focus, with the latest rumors and confirmed moves tracked regularly[2][3]. For the 2025/26 season, Aris Thessaloniki is reportedly targeting new additions, notably DeJulius and Hanlan, to bolster their roster[4].
Current Conference League statistics show Aris have scored one goal and conceded three in the latest stage, with several players such as Loren Morón, Moruțan, and Carles Pérez among their attacking options[5].
