In the last 15 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 7 of their 18 goals between minutes (76′ ‑ 90 ‘).
Living in a very unpleasant phase, Larissa’s team struggles to escape from the end of the classification. In addition to having a defense that has been compromised, his offensive system has been insufficient. Wins are rare and they are aware that they must start adding good threads if they want to move up the table. Therefore, now acting at home, he should prevail, leaving more for the game and putting pressure on the rival.
Atromitos :
After 3 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses, the visiting team is currently in 6th position, with 12 points won. In their last match, they tied Apollon Smirnis at home by (2‑2), after having won away in the previous match, in a match against Panathinaikos, by (0‑1). This is a team little affected by the home factor, that is, it presents similar results at home and away, since in the last 30 games it has registered 5 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses as a visitor, with 14 goals scored and 20 suffered; against 6 victories, 5 draws and 4 defeats in his stadium, with 14 goals scored and 11 suffered. In their last 4 away matches for the championship, Atromitos registered 1 victory, 2 draws and 1 loss, for which they won 5 points out of 12 possible. In 9 games in this tournament, he suffered the first goal 5 times and never got the comeback. In the last 5 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 4 of their 7 goals between minutes (46’ ‑ 60 ‘).
Compared to its rival, the Atromitos has improved a bit over the year, but suffers from fluctuations. In addition, they are aware that they have to correct defensive problems if they want to rise and evolve further within the competition. He is superior to his rival and, therefore, he must act in the same way as if he were to play at home, proposing the game with a focus on 3 points.
