Atromitos form and stats

Atromitos have only collected 3 points from their away games in the Super League, after 0-3-7 (10 played). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in ten away games in a row.

Atromitos won their last game, 3-1 versus Lamia played at home.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Ionikos wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

You'll want to know how Atromitos managed when outsiders such as today. Our database found five similar matches resulting in zero away wins, two draws and three home wins.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting OFI in just three days.

The visitors have scored 7 goals from 10 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. The Atromitos manager Paraschos has some worries about the defense as 23 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

This isn't the first time these teams get together this season, as the records show this recent match: Atromitos - PAOK 2-0. Head-to-head data (for the prior ten meetings): PAOK won five games, three matches ended in a draw and Atromitos got two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: five / five
