In another match on Sunday, in the match of the first round of the second part of the Cyprus championship, the Larnaca "Nea Salamina" will play at home with the Chlorak "Akritas". We present to your attention the forecast for this meeting.
"Nea Salamina"
"Nea Salamina" was not enough to get into the group of leaders, so they are now leading the standings in the cohort of outsiders. In the last four rounds, the Larnaca team failed, earning only 1 point. In the last two away matches, Savvas Pursaitidis' team lost 0:3 to Aris and APOEL, and between these failures there was a home draw with Olympiacos (2:2).
"Akritas"
Everything is bad for Akritas, because it is at the very bottom in the standings, and the gap from the saving zone is as much as 9 points. For 26 rounds of the first part of the season, the Chloraks scored only 12 points. They scored only 1 point in the last eight rounds, sensationally drawing with AEK on the road (1:1). After that, the "green and white" lost at home to "Apollo" (1:3) and "Doxa" (1:2), between these meetings having suffered a fiasco in an away match with "Enosis" (0:5).
