This game was marked in the calendar a long time ago by regulars of both teams, as it's the premier Super League - Playoffs game of the season. Both Lamia and Veria are hoping for a bright start to their campaign.
This looks to be an exciting fixture with lots of action and excitement as both sides are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Let's get started!
Lamia form and stats
Disaster struck Lamia last season as they could not defend their status as a Super League team. With 16 defeats from 26 games, and only 4 wins, relegation could not be avoided. Lamia are hopeful of bouncing straight back up, but need to improve upon their home record from last season of W2 D3 L8.
