AEK Athens form and stats

The striker Zuber outperformed all teammates in that match and managed a match rating of 8.41 out of 10. Zuber scored one goal, served one assist, hit three key passes and had 36 successful passes (of 44 total).

In the game before, a fine away victory at Brighton & Hove Albion. A Europa League match.

AEK Athens has scored {2 goals-1} so far and conceded {2 goals-2} from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.

Atromitos form and stats

Still no away game victory in the Super League for Atromitos with 1 draw and 2 losses from their first 3 attempts.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to OFI (placed 5th) in their previous outing. The match ended in a draw 1-1. As mentioned above, Atromitos drew the match against OFI. Manager Coleman brought on Jubitana to rescue the draw from a losing position and it worked. Midfielder González was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.43. González served one assist, hit three key passes and had 54 successful passes (of 57 total).

A 1-1 draw was the result before that, hosting Volos NFC.

A quick return to home after this game, as Atromitos are hosting Asteras Tripolis in the Super League only four days away.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Atromitos as they have only managed to score 2 times from 3 away games in the league. The Atromitos manager Coleman has some worries about the defense as 7 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

AEK Athens have been victorious in all of the 5 most recent duels against this side. Another win today?
