An important duel in the bottom section of the Super League, with both Apollon Smirnis and Panaitolikos experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 10th and the visitors in 11th place.
- Apollon Smirnis have the most conceded goals in the first half (21) in Super League
- Panaitolikos have the most matches under the total-line (16) in Super League
Apollon Smirnis and Panaitolikos should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Apollon Smirnis form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Super League this season. Apollon Smirnis have only managed 3 wins, 1 draw and 8 losses from their games here at Stadio Georgios Kamaras.
In their previous game, the manager G. Paraschos led his Apollon to a defeat in the Super League match away at AEK Athens. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Stadio Georgios Kamaras. Previous to that game, a home match hosting OFI in a game that was won 2-1.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Apollon have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found four games) they have won zero times, drawn three and lost one.
Apollon Smirnis are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 14 goals in 12 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 21 goals have been conceded.
Panaitolikos form and stats
Panaitolikos, who have the fewest points (5) away in Super League, have only collected 5 points from their away games in the Super League, after 0-5-7 (12 played). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Panaitolikos have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone twelve consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the OFI game.
Impressive finishing from Gboly Ariyibi secured the home win 1-0 against Volos NFC in their previous game. Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Larissa's place.
Panaitolikos are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, four draws and five defeats. From a total of ten matches.
Panaitolikos are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 2 goals from 12 away games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Panaitolikos have conceded 16 goals in these away matches.
Head 2 Head
This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Panaitolikos - Apollon 0-1. Numbers for the last nine meetings between these two teams are: two wins for Apollon, three draws and four wins for Panaitolikos. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: six games.Top Goalscorers
