THE A pan-eater welcomes him PAOK in Agrinio for its 24th matchday Stoiximan Super League (17:00, Cosmote Sport 1, radio from News Bulletin 247 and live update from sport-fm.gr), in a game where the hosts are underdogs and the “double-header of the North” is a clear favorite, who, however, is coming off a disqualification in the Betsson Greek Cup and a heavy defeat in the league against Olympiakos.

Thus, the Thessalonians they fell from the top and is at -4 (51b.) from the new leader of the standings, AEK (55b.), who has played more after their victory in Lamia against the team of the same name. At the same time, they are tied with Panathinaikos (51 points) and +4 ahead of Olympiakos (47 points). On the other hand, Agriniotes are in 11th place with 19 points and +3 from PAS Ioannina and the danger zone.

In the camp of the home team, Yiannis Petrakis saw his team present quite a bit competitive person in Tripoli against Asteras and to get the point of the tie (2-2) with his goal Mario Oikonomou in the second minute of stoppage time.

Nevertheless, the “canaries” saw him in the last quarter of the match Antonis Stergiaki to be injured and a forced change is made, while after the tests he underwent he is expected to be out for a month. Thus, his place in today’s game is expected to be taken by Chaves.

Otherwise, the Greek coach will not have the injured at his disposal Baldasara, Stergiaki, and Bakakias well as the suspended Bruno Duarte and Niko Karelis, who will serve out their card penalties.

On the other hand, he returned after almost a month Stefanos Kapinobut also Haris Mavrias, as of course Malis and Sengelia who served their sentences and were normally available to their team.

The “two-headed man of the North” made an excellent appearance, opened the scoring with Zivkovic and despite the opportunities he had to qualify from regular time, the match went to overtime. PAOK took the qualification lead with his goal Kenjiorahowever, after the shocking moment with Baba losing consciousness after the collision with Vagiannidis and leaving with a forced substitution, leaving his team with 10 players, Panathinaikos found the goal with Limnios and the match went to penalties.

The “black and white” were terribly unluckythey threw in the trash three bowl matches which would have given them a place in the final and in the end they saw Ali Samata slide, with the “clover” taking the place in the final.
