PAS Giannina form and stats

PAS Giannina have played 10 Super League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 4-3-3 (wins-draws-losses).

Giannina lost their last game at Olympiakos Piraeus (placed 1st) after a 0-2 scoreline.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Atromitos that ended 1-1.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from PAS Giannina's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played three games, won one match, drawn one and lost one.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for PAS Giannina as they are travelling to their away game against Asteras Tripolis in the Super League. That match is three days after this one.

Apollon Smirnis form and stats

There's been little loot from Apollon Smirnis's travels as they have only collected 1 point from 8 away games in the Super League. Apollon Smirnis only have 0 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 1 draw. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Apollon Smirnis have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Lamia game.

Apollon Smirnis are looking to quickly end their 522 minutes long goal drought in the Super League.

Apollon Smirnis play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-1 to Asteras Tripolis (placed 6th).

Prior to that match, the Apollon manager Grote faced defeat when travelling to Volos NFC and losing 0-1.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Apollon Smirnis playing away, we found three games. Results were zero away wins, zero draws and three home wins.

A quick return to home after this game, as Apollon Smirnis are hosting PAOK in the Super League only three days away.

Goals are few and far between in Apollon Smirnis's away league games. Only 3 goals from 8 travels. Apollon Smirnis have conceded 19 goals in these games.
