The visiting AEL side should be favourites in this visit to Nea Salamis, as the away team holds a 16 point advantage from their 13 league games this season.
- Nea Salamis has the fewest points from losing position (0) in 1. Division
- AEL is in the best form (5-0-1)
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Nea Salamis form and stats
Nea Salamis's struggle is real here with only 7 points collected from 7 1. Division games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-1-4.
No payout for Salamis in their previous match, an away game at AEK Larnaca that ended in defeat 0-1. A strong away win before that one, visiting Karmiotissa and winning 1-0.
The manager P. Christodoulou will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Enosis in only three days.
Salamis are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 7 goals in 7 games. Nea Salamis have conceded 12 from these games.
AEL form and stats
3 wins, 0 draws and 4 losses. That’s the product of AEL playing as the away team in the 1. Division this season.
AEL had fun at their own home last time out, beating Ethnikos Achna 5-0. Manuel Torres, M. Adamović and M. Babić (3) scored. Before that one, a nice away victory 2-1 at Apollon.
As mentioned above, AEL was the only team on the pitch versus Ethnikos Achna in their previous game, winning 5-0. This could be a tougher task. It's hard not to mention M. Babić's lethal finishing against Ethnikos Achna. three goals were a big reason for the important victory.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting APOEL in just four days.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far AEL have scored 7 goals in 7 league games away. As opposed to that, AEL have seen the ball go into their own net 10 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
