The Sunday (24/3) action for the last matchday of the regular season in this year’s Stoiximan Basket League, which concludes on Monday night (25/3, 20:15), when Panathinaikos AKTOR will welcome to OAKA the Prometheus.
THE Colossus was the big winner, since after his victory over Amarousi and the defeat of PAOK in Karditsa, he ensured his presence in the first six of the standings and consequently his presence in the playoffs. On the other hand, AEK Betsson after yesterday’s (23/4) defeat by Peristeri bwin and Sunday’s results, it will be in the playouts group, from which the teams that will enter the playoffs from positions 7 and 8 will emerge.
Let’s remember that this season one has been added extra round of five matches before the start of the playoffs, with the teams being divided into two groups, this one Top 6 (Panathinaikos AKTOR, Olympiacos, Peristeri bwin, Prometheus, Aris, Kolossos) and that of playouts (AEK Betsson, Lavrio, Maroussi, PAOK, Karditsa, Apollon Patron), having five more matches ahead of them.
In the playouts group, the last-placed team will be relegated, with Apollon Patrons sitting a… foot and a half in the Elite League looking for a miracle to avoid relegation, while the teams that finish in the top two places will find themselves in the playoffs from positions 7 and 8, even if after the completion of the new league phase they have a better record than the last two or more teams in the Top 6.
In addition, we should emphasize that the first two rounds of the playoffs are decided on two wins, the final on three, while the short final will be a single match.
