There's been ups and downs for these two teams so far this season, occupying positions near the middle of the 1. Division table so far. Here's the Olympiakos - AEK Larnaca latest:
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Cyprus Cup match only four days ago. This match was also played here. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, AEK Larnaca have had more rest.
Olympiakos is in the 6th league table position and will remain there regardless of what happens for the rest of the season. Larnaca are staying put at 5th place whatever happens for the rest of the season.
Olympiakos form and stats
Olympiakos have played 13 1. Division games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 4-2-7 (wins-draws-losses). Olympiakos has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager Č. Janevski and the players.
K. Sarfo was the last player to score a league goal for Olympiakos and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Olympiakos haven't scored in 270 minutes.
The Olympiakos supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host AEL in Cyprus Cup and win 4-2. Prior to that, an away loss at Omonia Nicosia in the 1. Division.
As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
Olympiakos are traveling soon after this match as the Cyprus Cup match at AEL awaits in three days.
Olympiakos have scored 12 league goals here from 13 matches, not a lot. On the other hand, Olympiakos have conceded 17 goals.
AEK Larnaca form and stats
Playing away, AEK Larnaca have won 4 games, drawn 3 and suffered 6 defeats in the 1. Division this season. Bitter travels for Larnaca as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Paphos match.
Larnaca might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. AEL proved too strong as AEK Larnaca slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at AEK Arena - George Karapatakis. Before that, Larnaca secured a home win against Anorthosis with the score 2-1.
The visiting Larnaca have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 15 goals from 13 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. As opposed to that, Larnaca have seen the ball go into their own net 15 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
This is not the first time this season these parties meet, as the history books show this recent fixture: AEK Larnaca - Olympiakos 2-1. As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's one Olympiakos victory, three draws and six AEK Larnaca wins.
