Fearless-PAS Ioannina: From… where they left off, with the people of Ioannina continuing to “burn”!

In the Municipal Stadium of Peristeri Atromitos and PAS Ioannina face each other on Saturday afternoon (16/3, 19:30), in the context of the 1st matchday of playouts of the Stoiximan Super League.

The game will be televised by Novasports Primeradioed by News Bulletin 247while there will be live updates from sport-fm.gr.

In fact, the two teams will… pick up where they left off. And that’s because they had completed the regular season of the championship with a match between them (1-1) in Ioannina. In a game in which PAS missed a great opportunity for a three-pointer-“breather”, as it not only took the lead in the 37th minute with Rienstra, but also saw Atromitos of the many absences stay with one player less in the 74th minute due to a straight red to Kivrakidis. Despite this, the Peristerians who had equalized from the 58th minute with Andzielski, managed to leave Epirus with the point.

Besides, it is characteristic that 1-1 follows six of the last seven meetings between the two teams regardless of home (all in the league), with the one that… broke being on October 10, 2022, when Atromitos prevailed 2-1 in Peristeri.

The data on the rating incentive is clear. On the one hand, Mr Fearless (8th, 28th) on the one hand, he wants to mathematically ensure survival (+9 from the relegation zone). On the other hand, to finish as high as possible, why not in first place in the playouts. After all, it is currently at -3 from the pioneer Asteras Tripoli. But the most important thing is to finish the season with as positive a sign as possible. On the other hand, the people of Gianni are the ones who “burn” being tails (18b.), at -1 from Volos, at -2 from Panaitolikos and at -3 from Kifissia. Four teams that make up the… subgroup that, it seems, will fight to stay in the division (two drop).

In the competitive part now, first of all in Atromitos Sasha Ilic will be deprived of the services of five of his players. Out of mission was left T-shirt who suffered an injury to the third metacarpal in training on Thursday (14/3), o Roubaix who was deemed unfit due to his recent injury, but having entered the last training sessions, o Jubitana who continues his treatment after his operation on the abdominals, while punished are the Athanasiou and Kibrakidis.

As far as guests are concerned, Michalis Grigoriou will not have him at his disposal Count who suffered a first-degree contusion in the posterior femur, the Soria due to punishment, but also him Nagi who, upon returning to the regular schedule, broke his little finger.
