3 victories, 2 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Omonia Nicosia have to build on here at Stadio Dasaki Achnas in the 1. Division.

The fans are hoping that Nicosia will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the 1. Division game against Doxa (placed 10th).

Preceding that game was the home draw versus AEK Larnaca that ended 1-1.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Nicosia's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played three games, won three matches, drawn zero and lost zero.

There will be little rest for Nicosia after this match as they are travelling to APOEL for a 1. Division game in only four days.

AEL form and stats

There's been little loot from AEL's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 6 away games in the 1. Division. AEL only have 1 win to counter their 2 defeats and 3 draws.

The supporters enjoyed AEL's previous game versus Olympiakos (placed 8th), a 1. Division 3-0 win played at home. AEL delivered their win in the match against Olympiakos already in the first half, and could slow the play down in the final 45 minutes to ensure the glorious victory. A solid performance!

Prior to that match, the AEL manager Pantelidis faced defeat when travelling to Paphos and losing 0-1.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and AEL playing away, we found four games. Results were one away win, zero draws and three home wins.

AEL have scored 6 goals on their travels this season, from 6 away games in the league. AEL have conceded 8 goals in these away matches.
