APOEL form and stats

The previous season, APOEL's league stats were 8 wins, 6 draws and 12 losses, providing 8th spot in the 1. Division. Over these 26 matches they scored 27 goals and conceded 31. Appearing as the home side in the former season APOEL generated 4-4-5 (win-draw-lost) with 15 goals and 15 conceded.

In their previous game, the manager S. Avgousti led his APOEL to a defeat in the 1. Division match away at Paphos. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Neo GSP. APOEL were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Prior to that, an away loss at Paphos.

The home team are expected to win this game about three out of four times, according to the bookmaker odds. When checking the database for APOEL home games with this odds we find seven games with a similar winning chance. Resulting in three wins, one draw and three defeats. Looking at the victories, three matches were won by at least two goals.

Olympiakos form and stats

Let's have a look at how Olympiakos performed last season in the 1. Division: They landed a 6th position in the league table after playing out 10 victories, 4 draws and 12 defeats. In total they scored 27 and conceded 38 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 6 - drew 2 and lost 5 with 15/21 goals scored/conceded.

Olympiakos might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Aris proved too strong as Olympiakos slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Makareio Stadio.

The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-2 defeat against Aris.

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Olympiakos played away with similar odds. This revealed five games. The visitors overcame the odds to win one time, zero were draws and the home team won as expected four times.

Head 2 Head

As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's eight APOEL victories, zero draws and two Olympiakos wins. Over/under statistics; six of these games ended with three goals or more, four matches with two goals or less.
