Apollon Pontou FC form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Football League this season. Apollon Pontou FC, who have the most conceded goals (10) at home in Football League, have only managed 1 win, 1 draw and 4 losses from their games here.

It's back home for Apollon Pontou FC, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Kavala away with the result 1-0. Sensational by Apollon last match, beating Kavala away as big underdogs.

Preceding that match was the home game against Veria that was lost 0-3.

The manager D. Kalaitzidis will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Thesprotos in only three days.

Apollon Pontou FC have scored 5 league goals here from 6 matches, not a lot. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 10 goals have been conceded.

Olympiakos Volos form and stats

2 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. That’s the product of Olympiakos Volos playing as the away team in the Football League this season. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Olympiakos are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

There might be some fixture complaints from Olympiakos as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Football League match against Veria (0-3).

A home win before that, celebrating 3-0 vs Pontion Karagiannion.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Olympiakos as they have only managed to score 5 times from 6 away games in the league. 8 goals have been conceded by Olympiakos in these games.

Head 2 Head
