Lamia vs Panetolikos: Prediction and odds on the Match on 18 May 2025

Prediction for the Super League game to take place on 18th May 2025 between Lamia and Panetolikos. Lamia are already relegated, they are one of the worst teams in the history of the Super League, with only 4 wins in the whole season. They will certainly try to improve their stats in the last two rounds, but it will be a very difficult challenge.

Lamia: form and statistics

A disaster of a season for Lamia. Everyone in the club just waits for everything to end, to take a little break, and focus on the challenges next season in the second division. They are in the last place in the table, they were in that position for almost the whole season. Their record is terrible, they have only 4 wins, 8 draws, and 22 defeats. They scored 20 goals and conceded 58. At home, they have 3 wins, 3 draws, and 11 defeats. they won in the last match at home against Panserraikos, and it was their only win since the start of the playoffs. In the last round, they suffered another heavy defeat as they lost against Volos as visitors.

Lamia: Lineup

Lamia often changes their starting formation, and sometimes they change it two or three times during the game. Considering their terrible performances and results, we can say that it only confused the players. In their last win, they played in a 3-4-2-1 formation, it seems that they play better when they have control in the middle of the field. They will miss several players for this match, and Staikos will have a difficult challenge to find a quality starting lineup.

🔖 Lamia starting lineup (3-4-2-1)

Kostic – Gotzamanidis, Chantakias, Dentakis – Vitlis, Lake, Sourlis, Soria – Tsiakas, Athanasakopoulos – Vlachomitros

⛔️ Out: A. Chavez, G. Furtado, G. Giannoutsos, V. Radonja, S. Sanchez, G. Sourdis, A. Tshibola (all injured)

👤 Head coach: Thanasis Staikos

Panetolikos: form and statistics

Panetolikos are safe, they will be part of the best Greek football league, and they are the slight favorite in this duel. However, their recent performances were terrible. They have only 2 wins since the start of the playoffs, in the last round against Levadiakos and against Lamia in the 3rd round. In the last 5 matches, they have two draws, two defeats, and a win. In their away matches, they showed that they can be a very tough opponent, and they have three draws, a win, and a defeat in the last five away matches. They are in 10th place with 11 wins, 9 draws, and 14 defeats with 42 points, 2 points behind the best team in this group, Levadiakos.

Panetolikos: Lineup

Panetolikos usually plays in a 3-5-2 formation, and they want to control the tempo of the match and the possession of the ball. In the last round against Levadiakos, they had only 36% possession of the ball, and yet in the end, they won. We will see if Petrakis may prepare some surprises for Lamia and will let them have the ball and force his players to exploit the flanks and try to penetrate the opponent's box with crosses and long balls. There aren't major issues with missing players, so Panetolikos are considered the favorite in this match with right.

Lamia vs Panetolikos match prediction 18 May 2025

We can expect a very tough duel, as both managers will try to take control of the match, and a big fight in the middle of the field is expected. Lamia are already out of the league, they need to win to improve their stats, while Panetolikos are certainly a better and stronger team and will want to win against the last-placed team. In their 3 previous encounter in the league this season, the result was always the same 1:0, Lamia won once and Panetolikos twice. I don't expect too many goals in this duel as well, and I believe that Panetolikos have enough quality to take all 3 points in this match.
