Aris will hope to utilise their home advantage to help bridge the gap to today’s opponents. The home side are currently 18 points behind PAOK.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Aris form and stats
4-2-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Super League numbers at home for Aris so far this season.
Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Julian Cuesta Diaz not having conceded a league goal in 197 minutes.
The home team returns after sharing the points with Panathinaikos (placed 7th) on their last time out; the Super League game ended 0-0. Before that game, the 4-0 home victory against Volos NFC.
The manager M. Oenning will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Xanthi in only four days.
With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (17 in 8 games), Aris's attacking play is working. Aris have conceded 8 in these home matches.
PAOK form and stats
PAOK, who have the most scored goals (35) in Super League, have been very strong on the road so far with a massive 20 points collected from 8 Super League games. 6 wins, 2 draws and 0 defeats is the record so far. The visitors have performed well in their home games as well, building a total win streak of four games home and away. PAOK hope to make it five in this match. Winning streaks in away matches are not that common, but PAOK are close to a proper streak after winning their two previous away games.
PAOK won their last game, 5-1 versus Atromitos played at home. Preceding that game was the away victory against Panionios with the score of 2-0.
As mentioned above, PAOK was the only team on the pitch versus Atromitos in their previous game, winning 5-1. This could be a tougher task.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The Greek Cup trip to OFI.
PAOK have scored more than twice on average per away game (in the league), an impressive attacking display. They have 16 goals from 8 away matches. It's not easy to score on PAOK as they have only conceded 6 goals from these away games.
Head 2 Head
The two sides played each other earlier this season: PAOK - Aris 2-2. Last ten meetings between the teams: Aris won 0, PAOK won 3 and 7 draws. 5 games with over 2,5 goals, 5 matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
