Both sides arrive with contrasting recent runs – Aris on a three‑win streak before two defeats, and Iraklis slipping to a single win in four matches. The clash pits Aris' potent home attack against an Iraklis side that concedes heavily on the road.

Lars's Verdict

Strong
Over 2.5 goals Lost Strong lean Strong · Goal volume

The model assigns a 57.7 % chance of over 2.5 goals, driven by Aris' 2.0 home xG and Iraklis' 1.7 away goals‑against average.

Show the maths
Aris' expected goals of 2.0 at home suggest they will likely score at least two times. Iraklis concede 1.7 goals per away match, meaning they are prone to allowing a goal in most outings. Adding those averages gives a combined expectation of roughly 3.7 goals, which translates into a model probability of 57.7 % for the total to exceed 2.5. The absence of a defensive ceiling in the data pushes the over market ahead of the under.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — Yes Lost 54.6% model probability

With Aris Thessalonikis averaging 2.0 expected goals and Iraklis 1908 averaging 1.0, the model gives a 54.6% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 45.4% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (Aris Thessalonikis 2.0, Iraklis 1908 1.0) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 54.6% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 45.4% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Over 2.5 Goals Lost 57.7% model probability

Combined expected goals of 3.0 (Aris Thessalonikis 2.0 + Iraklis 1908 1.0) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 57.7% chance against 42.3% for Under.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (Aris Thessalonikis 2.0 + Iraklis 1908 1.0 = 3.0 combined): 57.7% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 42.3% finishing with 2 or fewer.
Match Result Model

Form Guide — Last 5

Aris Thessalonikis

WWWLL

Aris' recent form of WWWLL includes a 3‑0 home win over Levadiakos and a 2‑1 home victory against OFI, showing they can create and finish chances in front of their own crowd. The two consecutive losses – 0‑5 away at AEK Athens and 0‑2 away at PAOK – underline a defensive fragility that does not diminish their scoring ability at home, reinforcing the likelihood of multiple goals in this fixture.

Iraklis 1908

LDWD

Iraklis' form LDWD features a 2‑0 away win over Asteras Tripolis and a 1‑1 away draw with Volos NFC, indicating they can score but also struggle defensively, having let in four goals in an earlier away loss to AEK Athens. Their recent draws and a solitary win suggest a modest attack that, when combined with Aris' firepower, can still contribute to a goal‑rich game.

Team News (Pregame)

No notable injury concerns were on record for either side heading into this match.
