Panaitolikos form and stats

With 2 Super League wins, 3 draws and 6 defeats from their home games, Panaitolikos are certainly not brimming with confidence. Panaitolikos have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.

The regulars are hoping that Panaitolikos will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 1-6 away loss in the game against Olympiakos Piraeus (placed 3rd). The first defeat after going undefeated in three league fixtures. Panaitolikos were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one. Duarte, an attacker, was the highest rated performer for the side in that fixture, scoring a rating of 7.32 (out of 10). Duarte hit three key passes and dribled past the opponent 3 of 5 times.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Asteras Tripolis that ended 0-0.
