Panathinaikos: From a position of strength, turn to Olympiakos, waiting for Schenkefeld for the Cup

by

THE Panathinaikos did his duty towards Panetoliko (2-1) and taking advantage of PAOK’s defeat by Aris, he passed back at the top of the Stoiximan Super League. But Sunday’s league and derby with AEK at Opap Arena can wait, because on Wednesday comes the first big match for the “16” of the Cup against Olympiakos at “Apostolos Nikolaidis” (21:30).

The “greens” want to lay the foundations for qualification, since the championship may be the team’s big goal, but no one overlooks the Cup. For this reason, Mr Fatih Terim he’s not going to do a… full rotation, though we might see some changes to the starting lineup to freshen up his squad. After all, no one can expect that Panathinaikos will play three big derbies in a row (including the rematch with Olympiacos next Wednesday) with the same faces.

The Turkish coach is expected, as everything seems, to have him available Bart Schenkefeld, who will probably return to full training today. They are also back at his disposal Reuben and Verbich, who served their punishment. On the contrary, the Palacios, Magnuson and Palmer-Brown.
