Stoiximan Super League: Fiesta in Philadelphia, applause on the Boulevard and derby in Toumba

The PAOK-Olympiakos derby will decide the 3rd place in this year’s championship, although everything for the “good” ticket to the Europa League will be decided in the upcoming Greek Cup final. In tonight’s game, the “Two-Headed of the North” only wants a win, in order to tie the standings with Piraeus and prevail in the draw.

In New Philadelphia, the team’s friends started celebrating this year’s title since yesterday, as the “Union” needs just one point against Volos to win the 13th championship in its history.

At the same time, on the Avenue, Panathinaikos will play against Aris, in a game that will be an opportunity for the fans to applaud Ivan Jovanovic and the team for their effort this year, and the fight to the end in claiming the championship after last year’s 4th place.

AEK – VOLOS

In the last five games between the two teams, regardless of home, the away team has won. AEK won in the Second Round of the regular season and in their first match for the Playoffs, while Volos prevailed 1-0 in the 2nd matchday of the championship at Rizoupoli.

The team from Magnesia had also prevailed in their previous encounter, which was for the Second Round of last year’s Championship, on January 30, 2022 with 2-1 at OAKA this time.

The history of their meetings is short, as Volos is only in its fourth season in the Super League, but it has four wins in a total of 12 meetings against AEK in the league and the Greek Cup.

AEK is running undefeated in the league in the Playoffs process, something that no team has achieved in the last three years.

PANATHINAIKOS – ARIS

Panathinaikos has four consecutive wins over Aris, home and away, in a streak that started from their matchup for last year’s Playoffs at the Alexandra Avenue stadium.

Aris’ last win over Panathinaikos is on September 22, 2021 in Thessaloniki for Round 1 of the 2021-22 season. In an away match, Aris prevailed 2-1 on April 18, 2021 at “Apostolos Nikolaidis” for the Playoffs of the championship.

This is their fourth home game against Panathinaikos for the Playoffs process in recent years, while they have one more in the 2007-08 season in the first year they were established. In total, the Greens have three wins and Aris has one, while there are nine home matches where Panathinaikos has five wins, Aris has one and three matches have ended in a draw.

PAOK – OLYMPIACOS

After seven matches in the league and the Greek Cup, where the home team had not won, Olympiacos won the last match between the two teams for the Playoffs at the Karaiskakis Stadium with 3-1 and broke this streak.

PAOK’s last league home win over Olympiakos was on April 18, 2021 with 2-0 (49′ Živković, 63′ Živković) and since then there have been three matches, with two draws for the regular duration of the 2021- 22 and 2022-23 and the victory of the Reds for the Stoiximan Super League Playoffs of 2021-22.

1-0 in favor of PAOK is the most popular victory score in the matches, since it has been presented nine times, while there are also nine 1-1 draws. They follow with eight appearances in the 0-0 and with seven appearances in the 2-0 in favor of PAOK. Olympiacos has six wins with 2-1.
