Speaking on the recent form, PFC head coach Panagiotis Dilmperis said, “Of course when one team is not having the desired results, losing four games in a row, it makes us feel that we have to improve our game. There are many reasons of why these results have happened and we have addressed them and will rectify them in the match tomorrow. We have conceded a lot of goals in the last few matches due to various reasons but we still have one of the best defensive statistics in the season”
