AEL perform at a high level so far being 2nd in the table. Olympiakos can look both up and down from their 6th position.

Insights:
  • AEL have the most scored goals in the first half (29) in 1. Division
  • AEL have scored at least twice as many goals at home as Olympiakos have scored away.

It's no vacation for neither AEL nor Olympiakos as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

AEL is in the 2nd league table position and will remain there regardless of what happens for the rest of the season. Olympiakos are staying put at 6th place whatever happens for the rest of the season.

Olympiakos form and stats

Playing away, Olympiakos have won 6 games, drawn 2 and suffered 5 defeats in the 1. Division this season. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Olympiakos are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Olympiakos are travelling again after losing away to AEL in their previous match (0-2). Preceding that, the 0-2 home loss versus Apollon.

The home team won three of these as expected, three of them by at least two goals. Olympiakos managed one draw and zero surprise wins.
