Larissa
- Larissa are winless in their last seven competitive matches (D3, L4).
- Larissa’s 3-4-3 system is wide on the flanks with the wingbacks having to be on their toes for the entire game.
Panetolikos
- Panetolikos have shown mixed form but recently picked up important wins, including a 2 - 1 victory over Kifisia and a 3 - 1 win against Asteras.
- Panetolikos are 11th on 26 points, with Larissa 12th on 23 after 26 games of the Super League relegation group.
Head-to-Head
- Panetolikos have won both of their 2025 - 26 Super League matches against Larissa by 4 - 1 and 3 - 0.
- There’s little to choose between the two clubs when playing in Larissa, where the head-to-head is more balanced.
- Larissa FC’s record of four wins in their last 15 matches against Panetolikos FC across all competitions (D4, L7).
Key Players
- Savvas Pantelidis has made Larissa more compact and better organised defensively since taking charge in December 2025, but the team lacks a reliable goalscorer.
- Ángelo Sagal has the most to his name, but there are not enough goals in the rest of the team to support his efforts.
- Jani Atanasov is the engine in the midfield, giving Larissa energy and structure, but the other players around him can get caught up in the defensive structure and don’t have enough quality to unlock a disciplined Panetolikos defence.
- Jorge Aguirre will be the main goal threat, but Kosta Aleksic is a physical presence up top and has recent scoring form.
Betting Insights
- Backing Both Teams to Score - No at 1.7 is our main play for this match because, despite both sides’ need to win, Larissa have drawn a blank in several recent games and Panetolikos are disciplined enough to keep their opponents quiet.
- The draw no bet option is covered on the Larissa win at 2.08 because we’re expecting the home team to finally find a way to beat their arch-rivals here and there should be under 2.5 goals in the game.
Prediction
- Panetolikos are more likely to get a goal against this Larissa team, given the visitors have the superior recent head-to-head record.
- Panetolikos’ overall form and goal difference are superior, but it was Panetolikos who looked more likely to win when the sides met on Matchday 26 of the regular season in February 2026.
