Panathinaikos Athens:
Panathinaikos Athens will miss the international competition for the third time in a row. The shamrocks from Athens have violated UEFA’s financial fair play and will consequently be excluded from the competition in the coming season. The championship playoffs are therefore no longer very important.
Panathinaikos Athens have been unbeaten for four games, including the recent draw in the city derby against AEK Athens. The clover leaves have a record of 8-2-3 in front of their home backdrop. In the Super League, Panathinaikos Athens recently won five home games in a row. The clean slate was preserved in three home wins.
Among other things, the shamrocks prevailed against PAOK Saloniki. In the upcoming home game against PAOK Panathinaikos Athens will have to do without their own supporters in the stadium this time. The ghost scenery is a crucial disadvantage for the home side. It therefore remains to be seen whether the shamrocks can tie in with the home strength.
The clovers are difficult to classify this season. It is therefore all the more difficult with Panathinaikos Athens vs. PAOK Saloniki made a forecast on the 1X2 market. As with the city derby against AEK Athens, head coach Georgios Donis will have no serious losses. Changes in the starting eleven are not expected after the solid performance in the city derby.
PAOK Saloniki:
In the run-up to the championship playoffs, PAOK had to cope with a severe setback with the point deduction by the Greek football association. At the start of the playoff there was also the home defeat against Olympiakos Piraeus last week, with which the last spark of hope for the title has gone. If the next setback follows, the CL starting position could be given up.
It is currently still uncertain whether PAOK Saloniki accepts the decision from the football association in this context or appeals. It is quite possible that the white-blacks will accept the punishment in this form and prepare for the coming season. In the worst scenario, the penalty of the football association could be even harsher.
In the championship playoffs it is now a matter of defending the second and therefore last place for the Champions League. After the home defeat against Olympiakos Piraeus, PAOK Saloniki is tied with the third in the table from Athens. If points are left behind in the upcoming match against Panathinaikos, it cannot be ruled out that AEK Athens will pass PAOK Saloniki.
In the 27 games of the current Super League season, PAOK Saloniki has already celebrated a total of 50 goals. This makes the white-blacks the second strongest offensive in the Greek upper house. Only Olympiacos Piraeus scored more goals than last year’s runner-up from Saloniki. Surprisingly, only one goal has been scored in the last three league games.
It should be noted, however, that the white-blacks met the leaders from Piraeus twice. Accordingly, these statistics should not be overestimated. In Athens, the team of coach Abel Ferreira is facing a groundbreaking match. Point losses are prohibited in the narrow table constellation.
