Tonight’s match between Panathinaikos and Kifissia (20:00, bwinSPORT FM, sport-fm.gr, Cosmote Sport 1) is a match with a common goal, but for a different purpose, at Leoforo for the 24th “turn” of Stoiximan Super League.
On the one hand, Panathinaikos, after the unexpected “gela” at home against Lamia and the 2-2 draw, recovered its psychology, getting a great qualification to the Betsson Hellenic Cup final, eliminating PAOK through the penalty shootout. The “clover” is looking for its return to victories, in order to maintain a top trajectory and remain in the -1 from AEK, “pressuring” it in the remaining two games of the regular season of the championship.
However, the team’s coach, Fatih Terim, has, once again, quite a few names written on his absentee list. In particular, the Turkish coach does not count on Cerin, Verbic, Djuricic, Gedvai and Huancar who remain on the “pitches”, the long-term injured Magnuson and Palmer-Brown, while in the last training session, the knockout was also Andraz Sporar who suffers from biceps tendinitis.
Panathinaikos mission in detail:
Lodingin, Dragovski, Lilo, Vaiannidis, Ruben, Senkefeld, Zeka, Ioannidis, Bakasetas, Limnios, Mancini, Ugo, Aitor, Mladenovic, Fikai, Kotsiras, Geremegev, Palasios, Vilena, Arao, Akaidin.
A “bet” match for Kifissia as well, which ignores the victory from the 21st matchday when he had left Heraklion and the headquarters of OFI with a great “double”. The team of Kosta Bratsos, has obviously changed, changed its philosophy in its game and after the draw with Volos and the defeat in Nea Filadelfia by AEK, it wants to “dress up” Lamia by obtaining a positive result in Leoforos.
The team from the northern suburbs is in last place in the standings, counting 16 points, while it has a harvest of three wins, seven draws and 13 losses, but against Panathinaikos it will try to “build” psychology, in view of the matches with Atromito and Panaitoliko, which are the last two before the playouts.
The coach of the team, Kostas Bratsos, does not count on the suspended Gobelic, Soloa and Spino, but also on the unprepared, Christianson, Schneiderlan, Papasavvas, Iliev, Andunes and Anderegen.
The mission of Kifissia in detail:
Nikopolides, Antonopoulos, Anagnostopoulos, Vafeas, Botia, Parras, Milicevics, Tsapan, Teixeira, Sbokos, Tsanatzia, Pritsas, Nini, Jovancic, Konstantakopoulos, Ozegovic, Tetei, Menendes, Chrisiouma, Klonaridis, Bifumas
We remind you that in the corresponding match of the first round, Panathinaikos was the one who had won with difficulty 1-0 against Kifissia at “Mihalis Kritikopoulos” of Kaisariani, thanks to a goal by Mancini.
