Super League: What this game might miss in glamour it should compensate in energy and commitment. Let's go: OFI - Ionikos!

Insights:
  • OFI have the most clean sheets (6) in Super League
  • Ionikos have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Nothing to worry about in defence for OFI, as their goalkeeper Boy Waterman has completely shut out the opponents for 443 minutes in the Super League.

Happy days for OFI in their previous game, a Super League match away at Volos NFC (placed 6th) that ended with a 2-0 victory.

A 0-0 draw away before that, with Panathinaikos the opponent.

Ionikos's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Asteras Tripolis that finished 1-1.
