Big as a fat A. diadematus. None white markings on body, it's plain and grey. No angles/tubercles like A. angulatus. The prey is Noctua pronuba.

Hi.
I's difficult to identify with certainty from this photograph and without size.
Araneidae generally have highly variable color and even the most distinctive characters (markings, special colorations ...) may be missing or faded.
Do you have more photos? Size?

Sorry I don't have more photos :(
Size as I said is as a fat Araneus diadematus. Bigger than A. angulatus and a bit smaller than A. grossus.
Thanks for reply!

Although the dimensions are quite variable in this genus of Araneidae, too much to use them as characters to identify. We can't be certain from this photo, therefore, for me it is Araneus sp. (cf.) - Araneae, Araneidae
