AEL Larissa Prediction – Can Larissa extend promising run?
An encouraging and promising 6-match unbeaten sequence in the Greek Super League has placed AEL Larissa in a strong position ahead of their Monday night clash with Super League strugglers, Lamia, with the hosts no doubt going in search of another three points which could lift them into 3rd spot.
After making a slow start to the new Greek top flight campaign, AEL have collected recent wins against Xanthi, Aris, Panathinaikos and OFI Crete to challenge for a top six finish and compete in the Championship Round later in the season, but recent form may also see the home side emerge as contenders for a European spot too.
AEL Larissa’s season started poorly though as they suffered back-to-back defeats to Olympiakos and Panionios following an opening day 1-1 draw with Atromitos, but Michalis Grigoriou’s side have since picked up steam and gathered impressive momentum.
A home record of 2-1-1 6/3 includes a run of 3 matches without defeat coming into this clash and with forwards Milosavljevic (4 goals) and Nunic (2 goals), the hosts look in good shape to grab the points here.
Lamia Prediction – Can Lamia continue fightback?
A 1-0 home win over Volos last Monday night handed Lamia a valuable and most welcome three points which ended a miserable 8-match stretch without a win in the Greek top flight, and dumped Lamia deep into the Relegation Round half of the division.
Despite their poor start, Lamia still remain unbeaten on home turf at their Dimotiko Athlitiko Kentro Lamias having beaten Volos along with four draws with Panathinaikos, Atromitos, Panionios and Panaitolikos, but poor results away from home have undone their solid work at home.
An away record of 0-0-4 1/11 includes disappointing defeats at AEK Athens 2-0, Olympiakos 2-0, PAOK 3-0 and Asteras Tripolis 4-1, and Lamia also possess the worst attacking stats away from home as well as having the joint second worst defensive record on the road too.
With just 2 away wins out of their last 15 matches on their travels, this also suggests that Lamia could find things tough going at AEL Larissa on Monday night.
Key-Facts – AEL Larissa vs Lamia
- AEL Larissa are unbeaten in their last 6 matches in the Super League
- Lamia have won just 2 of their last 15 away matches in the Super League
- Lamia possess the joint second worst defensive record away from home
Betting Tips Verdict
AEL Larissa therefore look the better equipped to grab the spoils here.
