Volos vs Panetolikos

Volos and Panetolikos are set to clash in an intriguing Greek Super League encounter that could prove pivotal for both sides as they look to secure vital points. With both teams eager to climb the league table, this match promises to be an exciting contest filled with action, drama, and crucial moments. Volos, playing at home, will be looking to make the most of their home advantage, while Panetolikos will aim to spoil the party with a strong away performance.

In their most recent match, Volos defeated Panserraikos on the road. Serres Municipal Stadium saw a 1-1 draw. Simon Skrabb scored the goal, and the Magnesia team had four shots on goal and 52% of the possession.

In their last game, Panetolikos lost 1-0, their second straight loss. This took place in Panetolikos Stadium, home of Atromitos. Despite having 54% of the ball, the Canaries failed to get a shot on goal.

The Volos have defeated Panetolikos twice in a row, with scores of 1-0 and 1-0 in both away games at Panetolikos Stadium. Four Volos victories, three draws, and three Panetolikos victories have occurred in the last ten head-to-head encounters.

Following a 1-1 Super League draw with Panserraikos, Volos will play in this match.

Volos had 13 shots on goal, five of which were on goal, and 52% of the possession during that game. The scorer for Volos was Simon Skrabb (66'). For their opponents, Panserraikos got 8 attempts at goal with 4 of them on target. Zisis Chatzistravos (22') scored for Panserraikos.

It has been all too rare in recent games where Volos have kept a clean sheet. It will be a concern for them that Volos have been scored against in 6 of their previous 6 games, giving up 13 goals during that time.

Panetolikos and their supporters will be hoping for a better outcome after losing to Atromitos in Super League action last time out. In that match, Panetolikos had 54% of the possession and 4 attempts on goal with 0 on target, while Atromitos had 20 attempts on goal with 8 on target. Amr Warda scored the game's only goal in 36'.

In six of the previous six meetings between Panetolikos and opposing teams, a remarkably low number of goals have been scored, with the average number of goals scored per game during that period being a meager 1.17, with The Canaries averaging 0.17. Of course, that trend won't necessarily continue into this next game.

This match is likely to be a battle of styles, with Volos favoring a more attacking approach while Panetolikos will look to stay compact and hit on the break. Volos’ midfield control and ability to dictate possession will be crucial in unlocking the Panetolikos defense. Meanwhile, Panetolikos may set up with a defensive mindset, looking to frustrate their opponents and capitalize on set-pieces and quick transitions.

With home advantage on their side, Volos might have the slight edge in this contest. However, Panetolikos has proven to be a tough side to break down, and they will certainly make things difficult. A closely fought encounter is expected, but Volos could just about edge this one with a narrow victory. A 2-1 win for Volos seems like a likely outcome, though a draw wouldn't be out of the question if Panetolikos executes their game plan effectively.
