PAS Lamia Prediction

PAS Lamia will go in search of a third consecutive win in the Greek Super League on Wednesday night when they take on Apollon Smyrnis, following recent back-to-back wins against Panathinaikos and Atromitos, both of which were at home.

The hosts will no doubt be keen to make hay while the sun shines as they have a third home match on the trot, and having lost their previous five matches on the trot in the Greek top flight (four of which were away from home), they’ll be eager to cash in here.

Lamia possess a reasonable record of 3-3-2 7/8 which includes just one defeat from their last seven on home turf which was a 1-0 loss to Super League leaders, PAOK. The hosts have kept three clean sheets to date while forward Barrales (4 goals) looks their best bet up front to score anytime.

 

Key-Facts – PAS Lamia v Apollon Smyrnis

  • PAS Lamia have lost just 1 of their last 7 home matches in the Super League
  • Apollon have lost the most away matches (8) so far in the Super League
  • Apollon have failed to score in 7 of their 9 away matches to date

 

Apollon Smyrnis Prediction

As mentioned earlier, Apollon Smyrnis not only sit bottom of the Super League but rock bottom as they’ve gained just 6 points so far in what has been a disastrous campaign for the visitors who find themselves nine points adrift of third from bottom club OFI Crete and safety.

Apollon have registered just one league win all season to date which was a 1-0 home win over Xanthi, but their form away from home has been abysmal as they’ve lost the most matches on the road in the Greek top flight amidst a wretched record of 0-1-8 2/17.

The visitors have lost their last four away matches on the trot with losses at Panathinaikos, Panaitolikos, Larissa and PAS Giannina, as well as scoring just 2 goals on their travels, which means they’ve failed to score in 7 of their 9 away matches to date.

With just one clean sheet to show for their troubles on the road this term, Apollon’s Super League status is in serious danger and even a trip to PAS Lamia looks beyond them here

Betting Tips Verdict

Lamia will search for a third win on the trot and given Apollon’s woeful away record, this looks extremely likely.
