Match description
Nea Salamis holds a clear statistical advantage: this season 21 wins, 4 draws and 0 losses with a 47-13 goal difference, and at home they average 1.67 goals scored and 0.42 conceded per match. Home xG is 1.97 versus away xG 1.36 for the visitors, and Nea averages 16.4 shots (6.4 on target) against Ayia Napa’s 9.38 shots (4.75 on target), reflecting superior quantity and quality of chances. In the last 5 matches Nea has scored 10 and conceded 6, recording 3 wins and 2 draws (PPG 2.2), while Ayia Napa has 6 goals and as many as 14 conceded, with no wins in those five games (PPG 0.2). Additionally, Nea Salamis has 58% clean sheets at home compared to 15% clean sheets for the visitors away and a lower rate of matches without scoring (17% vs 23%), therefore I assess a high probability of a home win (around 78%), draw 12% and away win 10%.
