Panetolikos (home)
- Panetolikos FC have now gone 4 matches without a win at home in all competitions (D1, L3) and Giannis Anastasiou's side just don't look like getting a win against in-form Kalamata at Panetolikos Stadium this Saturday.
- Panetolikos' results of 2026-27 have been flat of late, registering 0 wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats in their last 5 matches in all competitions - 1-2 at home to Asteras Tripolis in the Super League Relegation Group 2026, 1-1 away to ES Troyes AC in a friendly and 2-4 away to Kalamata in the Cup.
Kalamata (away)
- Kalamata have won 7 of their last 10 in all competitions (D1, L2), losing none of their last 5 on the road (W4, D1).
- Panagiotis Christofileas has Kalamata playing in a more aggressive, ball-on-the-ground fashion where they are getting their ball back quickly in the midfield and pressing higher up the field.
- They travel well too with 4 wins and 1 draw in their last 5 away from home, so they have all the momentum behind them in this matchup.
Head-to-Head
The Black Storm beat Panetolikos 4-2 away in the Cup 2026/2027 earlier this season.
Key Players
- Juan Manuel Garcia has scored 2 of Panetolikos' 5 goals in their last 5 games, so he is one of the few players that could cause Kalamata some issues up top.
- Kenneth Vargas has scored 3 of Kalamata's 8 goals in their last 5, so he is in good form and an anytime goal for the away team looks a solid play.
Betting Insights
- The odds shade Panetolikos at 2.12, ahead of Kalamata at 3.6 and the draw at 3.3, but that is a reflection of a competitive and close affair expected and one where the visitors are the sharper of the two sides.
- Backing Both Teams to Score at 1.89 looks a live wager too, as Kalamata can hit the ground running on the away with an average of 1.60 goals per match on the travel and 8 goals scored away, while Panetolikos have conceded an average of 1.75 per home match and scored 1.00.
Prediction
- Back the Black Storm to be in full flow here.
- We have to back them to both hit the net here.
