Competition: Cyprus 1. Division
Date: Sun 05.January
Match begins: 15:00 (UTC)
Venue: GSP Stadium (22859 seats)

The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. APOEL are in the 5th position while the guests worry at 11th.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

APOEL form and stats

The story so far in the 1. Division for APOEL at their home stadium (GSP Stadium) is 4 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at GSP Stadium.

The fans are hoping that APOEL will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the 1. Division game against AEL (placed 4th). Previous to that game, a home match hosting Ethnikos Achna in a game that was won 2-0.

The match schedule is unforgiving for APOEL as they have a new game in only three days, a 1. Division match thankfully also at home. Olympiakos are visiting.

APOEL can score goals in their home matches. After 5 league matches they have found the net 10 times. Defensively APOEL have been outstanding, conceding less than half a goal on average per home game in the league (0 in 5 games). For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Enosis form and stats

There's been little loot from Enosis's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 7 away games in the 1. Division. Enosis, who have the most conceded goals (32) in 1. Division, only have 1 win to counter their 2 defeats and 4 draws.

Two away games in a row for Enosis, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-5 versus Anorthosis in the 1. Division. A 2-2 draw was the result before that, hosting AEL.

Enosis lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 1-5 beating and focus on this one.

With the home team given a winning probability of about 80% by the bookmakers, any point(s) for the visitors would be a surprise. Checking earlier matches with similar odds with Enosis as the away team, we found two results. Statistics from these were 0 away wins, 0 draws and 2 defeats. The outsiders lost 1 of these games by at least two goals.

A new game in only three days for Enosis, the Cyprus Cup home match versus Doxa. Busy days.

The travelling fans enjoy Enosis's attacking play in away games, having scored 11 goals in 7 league matches away. The Enosis manager has some worries about the defense as 15 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

The last H2H meeting was Enosis - APOEL 2-3, played this season. Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: 9 wins for APOEL, 1 draw and 0 wins for Enosis. Over 2,5 goals: 7 times; under 2,5 goals: 3 games.
