Lamia vs Athens Kallithea Prediction: Derby at the bottom of the table

Two teams that are in the relegation zone will meet today. Last placed Lamia will welcome Athens Kallithea. This match might be the most important match of the season for them so far. With a win here, they can reduce the gap and move only three points behind Athens Kallithea and four behind Volos, who are above the relegation zone. The visitors, of course, have their ambitions, and with a win here, they will escape the relegation zone, so I expect a very tight match and a ruthless fight on the field.

Lamia

Form: DWLWL

With several good matches at the end of the regular season, we can say that Lamia got back in the fight to avoid relegation, although they haven’t moved from the last place. In the last round, they once again showed their fighting spirit and drew against Panserraikos as visitors 1:1. They withstood very great pressure during the whole match, they were a little bit lucky, they scored the only goal from a penalty and VAR dissalow one goal of Panserraikos and in the end Lamia got one point. Today, they will face a very different opponent, and I think that they will have to attack and try to get all three points as they are in a worse position than Athens Kallithea. 

Athens Kallithea

Form: DWLLL

For a long period, especially in the first part of the season, Athens Kallithea were at the bottom of the table, and as a newcomer to the league, they were considered as a favorite for relegation. However, they are now only a point behind Volos, and they have realistic chances to avoid relegation. They are undefeated in the last two matches with a win and a draw, but before that, they had a terrible streak of three defeats in a row. In this match, they will be without several players, Sardelis, McGarry, Manthatis, and Barragan, and it will certainly affect them. I think that their manager, Malezas, will set a more defensive formation against Lamia.

Expert Betting Tips

This match is to be or not to be for Lamia. Athens Kallithea are considered as a favorite according to bookmakers, but I don’t agree with it. I think that Lamia can make a surprise and win in this derby and get back in the race for escaping the dangerous zone. In the first match in this stadium, the result was 0:0, while in Athens, Kallithea won 2:1. I think that this will be a very tough match, both teams will play carefully and we won’t see too many chances and goals. It seems to me that this match will be decided with one goal, and I believe that Lamia will take all three points in front of their fans.
