The visiting Ermis side should be favourites in this visit to AE Zakakiou, as the away team holds a 26 point advantage from their 13 league games this season.
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Cyprus Cup. That game was also an away game, at Omonia Nicosia. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
AE Zakakiou form and stats
AE Zakakiou's struggle is real here at Gipedo Zakakiou with only 6 points collected from 6 2. Division games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-3-2.
The fans are hoping that AE Zakakiou will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the 2. Division game against Akritas (placed 5th). Prior to that, an away loss at Digenis Morphou.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for AE Zakakiou here at Gipedo Zakakiou in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (5 from 6 games). Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 9 goals have been conceded.
Ermis form and stats
Ermis's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Ermis, who have the most scored goals (28) in 2. Division, collect 14 points from their 6 away matches in the 2. Division. 4 victories and 2 draws have created these points (and only 0 defeats). In general it has been a productive period now for Ermis as they haven't lost any of their last 13 games. Ermis have won three away matches in a row now and will not be intimidated by being the visitors in this fixture.
Ermis play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-3 to Omonia Nicosia. A loss against Omonia Nicosia was the result prior to that, in a home game.
Ermis are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 9 times in 6 away games so far. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (4 so far).
