These teams have both had their share of problems so far, but a win in this very important game would certainly be a big help. Get set for Akritas - Karmiotissa!

Insights:
  • Akritas have the most conceded goals (35) in 1. Division
  • Karmiotissa have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.

9-7-16 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Karmiotissa when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 32 matches are 38-59 (scored/conceded).

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.

Akritas form and stats

With 3 1. Division wins, 0 draws and 7 defeats from their home games, Akritas are certainly not brimming with confidence. When Akritas hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Doxa, Akritas, Olympiakos and Enosis), they have won 1 of 2 matches!

Stress levels are on the rise for Akritas's attacking players as they have now played 273 minutes without scoring in a league game. Lopes was their last goal scorer.

Akritas faced defeat in their previous match, away at APOEL (0-2).

Before that match, a loss in the away fixture against Paphos in the Cyprus Cup.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Akritas here at Stadio Stelios Kyriakides in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (7 from 10 games). Akritas have conceded 18 from these games.

Karmiotissa form and stats

Karmiotissa have only collected 9 points from their away games in the 1. Division, after 2-3-5 (10 played).

Karmiotissa lost away at AEL (0-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.

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

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Karmiotissa as they have only managed to score 6 times from 10 away games in the league. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. In the opposite end, Karmiotissa have conceded 17 goals in their away games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.

Head 2 Head

This was the score when the teams met previously this season; Karmiotissa - Akritas 1-0. As for the last six games between these two teams, there's two Akritas victories, zero draws and four Karmiotissa wins. Over/under statistics; two of these games ended with three goals or more, four matches with two goals or less.
