Apollon Smirnis form and stats
Apollon Smirnis's first Super League home game here at Stadio Georgios Kamaras ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 4 wins, 3 draws and 10 defeats from 17 matches. Apollon has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager G. Petrakis and the players.
Apollon are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-4 away versus Olympiakos Piraeus.
Before that game, the home loss against Volos NFC with the scoreline 1-3.The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Apollon have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found ten matches with the results: Won five, drawn zero and lost five.
The match schedule is unforgiving for Apollon Smirnis as they have a new game in only four days, a Super League match thankfully also at home. Asteras Tripolis are visiting.
Apollon Smirnis has scored 1 goal so far and conceded 3 goals from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.
Ionikos form and stats
The visitors' first away game in the Super League ended in defeat. Last season Ionikos had these away match statistics: Played 11; won 3, drew 4 and lost 4. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Ionikos's last three away games as they have all been lost.
Ionikos have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper Eleftherios Choutesiotis. It's been 204 minutes since they last conceded in Super League.
Ionikos delivered a 0-0 draw playing at home against PAS Giannina (placed 4th) in their previous match; a Super League game.
A home win before that, celebrating 1-0 vs Aris.As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found four similar matches played by Ionikos in our archives, and the results are: two wins for Ionikos, two draws and zero defeats.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Ionikos manager D. Spanos as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Panathinaikos.
As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Ionikos has managed 0 goals and let in 3 from 1 match.
