This match features two teams living in the basement of the Super League, Lamia holding 12th place and Volos NFC lying 10th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.

The hosts Lamia saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Greek Cup. That game was an away game at Aiolikos, so at least Lamia are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Lamia form and stats

0 victories, 4 draws and 0 defeats. That’s what Lamia have to build on here at Dimotiko Athlitiko Kentro Lamias in the Super League. So many draws at home for Lamia, an amazing four in a row now.

A good away victory last time out for Lamia, who won 3-0 against Aiolikos. A Super League defeat was the result before that one, 1-4 away at Asteras Tripolis.

This is expected to be a close game, with Lamia perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Lamia as a small favourite), we find eight games. Lamia has won 3 of these, drawn 3 and lost 2.

Lamia are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 4 attempts. On the other hand, Lamia have conceded 4 goals.

Volos NFC form and stats

1 win, 0 draws and 3 losses. That’s the product of Volos NFC, who have the most conceded goals (17) in Super League, playing as the away team in the Super League this season. With the Volos NFC losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Volos NFC's last three away games as they have all been lost.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Panserraikos in their previous outing. The Greek Cup match ended in a draw 1-1. A 0-2 loss hosting PAOK before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Volos NFC playing away and similar expectations, we found one relevant match. Results were 0 Volos NFC wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats.

Volos NFC are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 5 away goals from 4 games (in the league). People interested in "over 2,5 goals" betting will like to know that Volos NFC concede an average of more than 2,5 goals per away match all on their own. There are big problems for the Volos NFC defense as they have conceded 12 goals in 4 away games.

Head 2 Head
