AEK Athens form and stats

AEK Athens have only played one Super League game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 7 wins, 6 draws and 5 defeats from 18 matches.

Athens shared the glory with OFI in their last match, an away game that ended all square 3-3. Opportunity lost for Athens in the OFI match as a lead 3-0 was lost and what looked like a victory ended in a draw. A goal frenzy last time out for Athens, with a total of 6 goals in the match against OFI. Fun stuff to watch! Karim Ansarifard was able to secure the draw 3-3 in the game against OFI after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?

Ahead of that match, AEK Athens won a home game hosting Ionikos (3-0).

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Athens as they are travelling to their away game against PAOK in the Super League. That match is four days after this one.

Early season league goal statistics from AEK Athens's 1 home game: 3 goals, 0 conceded.

A new game in only four days for Lamia, the Super League home match versus Panaitolikos. Busy days.
