Ionikos vs Olympiacos Prediction: Hosts to stay put in the bottom spot

The second half of the Super League Greece kicks off with Ionikos hosting the venomous return of Olympiacos after a world-class performance against Asteras Tripolis. Olympiacos has never lost a match to Ionikos in the seventeen-game history between both sides. The last five meetings between the sides have tilted towards Olympiacos, leaving Ionikos struggling for domination. Will Olympiacos continue their reign of terror over Ionikos?

Ionikos (1st)

Last five matches: L-D-L-L-L

Failing to wriggle out of a swamp of losses, Ionikos face one of the worst seasons ever recorded, documenting eight points in fifteen games and a fifteen-goal deficit. They have lost four of the last five games and drew one: taking just a point from the last fifteen available.

At home, they have managed to secure five points in seven games, conceding a seven-goal deficit. Away from home, they have fared worse; pulling only three points from seven games and conceding eight goals in deficit. Morale and confidence in this camp edge to zero and from the look of events, they may be heading for another defeat against Olympiacos.

Fans and critics alike would have to cross hands and watch Dimitri Spanos return from the technical board with yet another hopeful tactic for a deserved win.

Olympiakos Nicosia (13th)

Last five matches: W-D-W-W-D

Galloping off the back of a five-nil win over Asteras Tripolis, visitors Olympiacos nose-dive into this clash: one they have never lost, in hopes of favoring a long string of historical victories against a side that may have seen better days this season.

They have claimed seventeen solid points at home from eight games and twelve from the last seven away games. Although the team is a few points shy of the top spot, they have what it entails to emerge as top contenders for the title.

Carlos Corberan, Head Coach for Olympiacos would hope to thrill the away supporters who expect a befitting victory from this game.
