Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Atromitos in 9th and Xanthi in 8th place.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Xanthi are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.
Atromitos form and stats
4 victories, 4 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Atromitos have to build on here at Stadio Peristeriou in the Super League. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Atromitos with their five defeats in a row. Not since the Volos NFC game, 35 days ago, have they avoided a loss. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Atromitos, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.
Atromitos haven't scored a league goal since they found the net 540 minutes ago. P. Giakoumakis scored that one.
Atromitos are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-1 away versus OFI. Preceding that match was the home Greek Cup game against Aris that was lost 0-1.
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 Atromitos have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found six games) they have won six times, drawn zero and lost zero.
The Atromitos fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 16 in 12 matches. On the other hand, Atromitos have conceded 12 goals.
Xanthi form and stats
As the visiting team in Super League matches, Xanthi have produced an overall stat of 4-1-7 so far.
Xanthi aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 199 league minutes without a goal. M. Castro was the last player to find the net. The Xanthi goalkeeper Carlos Javier Abad Hernandez Trujillo is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 217 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.
Xanthi's last game was the home draw against Lamia (0-0). Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Panionios that ended 0-0.
We have checked recent matches where Xanthi have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those nine games were one victory, six draws and two defeats.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Xanthi as they have only managed to score 9 times from 12 away games in the league. In the opposite end, Xanthi have conceded 20 goals in their away games.
Head 2 Head
These teams' last encounter with each other was the Xanthi - Atromitos 1-0 earlier this season. H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Atromitos three wins, three draws and Xanthi four victories. As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), seven games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
