Panaitolikos and OFI cross swords in Agrinio (17:00) for the 7th matchday of the Stoiximan Super League playouts, in their last game for this season.
Both teams will be looking for victory for their own reasons in order to end the season on a positive note. The Agriniotes want to get the first three points in the playouts, since they count so far five defeats and one draw, having a very poor showing in the mini league.
Yannis Anastasiou’s team is located in 11th place of the scoreboard with 30 points, having secured the stay from the previous matchday, as despite the defeat by Atromitos in Peristeri, it was favored by the results of the other teams.
As for the mission, it does not include the wounded Martenson, Huanpi, Dago, Apostolakis as well as the Anestis, Chatzitheodoridis and Bakakis. The last two, however, participated in part of today’s training.

On the other hand, the Cretans will go to Agrinio to maintain the first place in the playouts, which has been mentioned many times as a goal of the team. Valdas Dabrauskas’ total is at “7” of ranking, having 38 degrees, one more than Atromitos, who will face Asteras in Tripoli.
The Lithuanian coach will have at his disposal Perea, who overcame the injury problem that was plaguing him. On the contrary, he cannot count on Tsilianidis, Neira, Toral, Sifakis, Sotiriou, Vouros, Pasalidis, Griva, Ntzou and Theodosoulakis.
