Form Guide
Aris Thessalonikis — last 10 games: 1W 7D 2L, averaging 1.00 points per game. Last five: L D D L D. They are averaging 0.70 goals per game and conceding 1.00 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 4 clean sheets in 10 games (40%) reflects a solid defensive base.
At home, Aris Thessalonikis have gone 1W 8D 1L in their last 10 home games (1.10 PPG). At home they are averaging 0.70 goals scored and 0.80 conceded per game. 4 home clean sheets from their last 10 home games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground.
Looking at their last 10 matches, Volos NFC stand at 1W 4D 5L — 0.70 PPG. Last five: D D L W D. Their scoring rate of 0.80 per game is modest, conceding 1.50 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
Volos NFC's away record over their last 10 away games: 3W 0D 7L (0.90 PPG). Away from home they average 1.00 goals scored and 1.70 conceded per game.
The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: Aris Thessalonikis 1.00 PPG, Volos NFC 0.70 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.
H2H Record
Aris Thessalonikis hold a clear advantage across the 7 H2H matches in our data, with 4 wins compared to 1 for Volos NFC and 2 draws.
The 7 H2H matches in our data averaged 2.4 goals per game — a neutral rate that gives no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent of those, on 14 Feb 2026, ended Aris Thessalonikis 1–1 Volos NFC — a draw.
The head-to-head data gives Aris Thessalonikis an edge — 4 wins from 7 H2H matches is worth weighing, particularly if the form picture is inconclusive.
In-Play Data
Aris Thessalonikis trading profile (last 59 games, 29 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 52% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 70% of the time; of the 20 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 40%; of the 11 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 27%; BTTS occurs in 41% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 24% of games (home games).
Volos NFC trading profile (last 59 games, 29 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 69% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 90% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 55% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 45% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 55% of games (away games); they fail to score in 36% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Aris Thessalonikis 49% versus Volos NFC 48%; no strong lean in either direction. Under 2.5 goals has backing from the in-play data — both teams register low Over 2.5 rates (Aris Thessalonikis 30% | Volos NFC 48%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Aris Thessalonikis 1.08 xG and Volos NFC 0.78 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Aris Thessalonikis attack 0.697 / defence 0.908 | Volos NFC attack 0.803 / defence 1.185. League average goals — home 1.305 / away 1.064. Aris Thessalonikis's attack rating of 0.697 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 1.08. Data: built from Aris Thessalonikis's last 52 games and Volos NFC's last 52.
Result probabilities: Aris Thessalonikis 40% | Draw 36% | Volos NFC 24%. Fair-value odds: Aris Thessalonikis 2.49 | Draw 2.78 | Volos NFC 4.18. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 36% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 28% | BTTS Yes probability 38% | Total xG 1.85. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 72% probability — total xG of 1.85 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match. BTTS No at 62% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.
Analysis Verdict
On the Poisson output, Aris Thessalonikis are the pick at 40% — marginal model lean. The head-to-head data (Aris Thessalonikis 4 wins from 7 H2H matches) corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. With a 36% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Aris Thessalonikis offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
On the goals line, Poisson's 1.85 combined xG gives a 72% probability to Under 2.5 — reasonable conviction, supported by recent form (Aris Thessalonikis's last 10 home games and Volos NFC's last 10 away games) averaging 2.1 goals per game.
Poisson assigns a 62% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Aris Thessalonikis 50% (last 10 home games) | Volos NFC 40% (last 10 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Aris Thessalonikis beat Volos NFC 3-2 at Kleanthis Vikelidis Stadium, Conference League Group - 2, in the Super League 1. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Aris Thessalonikis 1.08 xG and Volos NFC 0.78 xG, a combined 1.85. The scoreboard read 3-2 for 5 actual goals. Aris Thessalonikis beat their projection by 1.9 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Volos NFC outscored their 0.78 projection by 1.2. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Aris Thessalonikis attack 0.70 / defence 0.91 against Volos NFC attack 0.80 / defence 1.19, drawn from 52/52 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Aris Thessalonikis 40% | Draw 36% | Volos NFC 24%, with Aris Thessalonikis to win its most likely call at 40%. The result followed the model's preferred path, landing its top-rated outcome.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 28%. The game delivered 5, so it went over — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 57% and landed. Over 3.5 was 12% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 38% and the match saw both sides score — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 39% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Aris Thessalonikis 30%, Volos NFC 48%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 48%, which did not match the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Aris Thessalonikis's trading profile (59 games, 29 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 49% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 37% of the time, and conceded here.
Volos NFC's trading profile (59 games, 29 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 48% of their matches — today it did.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Aris Thessalonikis 1.47 PPG, Volos NFC 1.15 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Aris Thessalonikis win broke the near-deadlock. Aris Thessalonikis (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 1.17 average — above their attacking norm and shipped 2 against a 0.72 concession average — a leakier day than usual. Volos NFC (home/away splits) scored 2 against a 1.07 average — above their attacking norm and shipped 3 against a 1.62 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss). This one broke away from the data — most of the pre-match signals were overturned by how the ninety minutes actually played out.
