Volos are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 3-3 draw at Apollon Smirnis (placed 11th). A 1-4 loss hosting OFI before that.

Volos's last match (vs Apollon Smirnis) ended in drama as all points looked lost at the score 0-3. They did not give up, fought back and in the end a courageous finish rescued a draw after 90 minutes thanks to a 90th minute equalizer by Rodrigo Colombo. As you can tell from the result, the match against Apollon Smirnis was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?
