Olympiakos form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the 1. Division this season. Olympiakos have only managed 1 win, 3 draws and 2 losses from their games here at Neo GSP. When Olympiakos hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Doxa, Akritas, Olympiakos and Enosis), they have won 1 of 2 matches! Their last two home games have resulted in two points, meaning they were both draws.

In their previous game, the manager Serghides led his Olympiakos to a defeat away at Omonia Nicosia. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Neo GSP. Olympiakos were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 2-2 versus Doxa.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams.
