Aris form and stats

Aris are yet to lose a point on their Super League travels this season with 3 wins from 3 away games.

Aris might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Olympiakos Piraeus proved too strong as Aris slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans. Before that one, a nice away victory 1-0 at Panaitolikos.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found five similar matches played by Aris in our archives, and the results are: one win for Aris, three draws and one defeat.
