The only way for Panathinaikos is the victory in tonight’s match with Ionikos in Nice for the 19th game of the Super League (19:30, Cosmote Sport 2, bwinΣΠΟΡ FM 94,6 and sport-fm.gr).
The “greens” are looking for the second away victory in this year’s championship, continuing at 0-0 with a very good appearance in the derby with Olympiakos and securing the qualification to the “4” of the Greek Cup.
The scoring pressure is suffocating both for Ionikos, which is now in 12th place, and for Panathinaikos, which sees several teams threatening the fourth place, where it is now. The game of Naples with its result can change the balances for two teams that are “burning” for points.
The hosts suffered their fourth consecutive defeat in Lamia and were in 12th place in the standings. The concern is growing, although the last three games were far from Nice. Ionikos has not won in the last five leagues, after the 3-2 win over PAOK, which is the only one in the last 10.
Having played four of the last five league games at home, and after achieving a wide victory in the Cup against Anagennisi Karditsa, Panathinaikos is also looking for success away from home. The “greens” have made five defeats, got a draw from Olympiakos and defeated Lamia, but in Volos, not in the home physics.
Tradition
Panathinaikos dominates the games with Ionikos, having lost three times. In the first round they prevailed 4-1, while they had scored four goals in their last game in Naples. In Naples, Ionikos has been winning since March 9, 1997, 3-1 then (8 ‘head of Filis, 81’ shot by Frousos, 88 ‘shot by Tsiantakis – 26’ shot by Vazeha).
