PAOK

WWWDLL

After being beaten in their last game against Club Brugge in Conference League action, PAOK and their fans will hope to get a better result this time.

Ferrán Jutglà (33', 45') was the scorer for Club Brugge.

Demonstrating their penchant for productive matches, we’ve seen goals 21 times in the last 6 games in which PAOK have sent out their troops, giving a mean average of 3.5 goals for each fixture. Their opponents have got 8 from this total. We will find out whether or not that trend can be continued on here.

👥 Head to head

A look at their past head to head meetings dating back to 17/10/2022 shows us that Olympiacos have won 3 of them and PAOK 2, with the tally of drawn games being 1.

A sum of 19 goals were shared by the two clubs throughout the course of those matches, with 11 from Τhrylos and 8 created by Dikefalos tou Vorra. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 3.17.

The previous league fixture between these clubs was Super League match day 23 on 18/02/2024 which finished with the scoreline of PAOK 1-4 Olympiacos.

That day, PAOK had 52% possession and 15 shots at goal with 4 on target. The scorer was Kiril Despodov (39').

Olympiacos got 10 shots at goal with 7 of them on target. Fran Navarro (29'), Daniel Podence (54') and Ayoub El Kaabi (83', 90') scored.

The referee was Christian Dingert.

📰 Team News: Olympiacos

The Olympiacos boss José Mendilibar has zero fitness worries whatsoever before this game with a completely healthy group ready to go.

It’s our opinion that Τhrylos will probably go for a 4-3-3 system for this one, utilising K. Tzolakis, Quini, Panagiotis Retsos, Nelson Abbey, Omar Richards, Chiquinho, Vicente Iborra, Andre Horta, Gelson Martins, Fran Navarro and Daniel Podence.

ℹ️ Team News: PAOK

Thanks to a largely full-strength group, there’s just the lone fitness issue for the PAOK boss Răzvan Lucescu to be concerned with. William Troost-Ekong (bruise) misses out for this game.

It’s our belief that Dikefalos tou Vorra seem likely to make use of a 4-2-3-1 lineup, settling for Dominik Kotarski, Juan Sastre, Tomasz Kedziora, K. Koulierakis, Abdul Rahman Baba, Magomed Ozdoev, Soualiho Meite, Andrija Zivkovic, Thomas Murg, Taison and Brandon.

✨ Prediction

Looking at these two teams, we feel that PAOK are capable enough to put one past this Olympiacos lineup, but that is unlikely to be enough to avoid defeat.

We’re tipping both teams to score in a 2-1 advantage for Olympiacos by the conclusion of the game. Let’s wait and see how it plays out.
