Derbara in “G. Karaiskakis” with a completely different momentum for Olympiakos and PAOK

Big game in “Georgios Karaiskakis”, with Olympic to welcome on Sunday (21/04, 20:30) the PAOK for the 6th matchday of the Stoiximan Super League playoffs, in a match that can prove decisive for the title battle, which is at her… best!

With 63 points, the “red and white” are in 4th place and -6 behind the leader, AEK (69b.), who has more matches, while on the other hand the “doubleheader of the North” is one place higher with 67 points and is only two points away from the top of the scoreboard. It is easy to understand, therefore, that the winner of the Faliro derby will do decisive title step, brimming with confidence that he has the potential to cut the thread first. On the other hand the loser will receive a strong blow, while in case of a tie everything remains open.

This match, however, does not attract attention only for scoring reasons. Apart from the quality of the two teams, the battle of the benches with Mendiliber and Lucescu, but also their previous explosive meetings this year, the European night that preceded it was special for both sides.

After all, how else could it happen, since the return matches of the quarter-finals of the Europa Conference League for Olympiakos and PAOK developed completely differently. First, Jose Luis Mendiliber’s team took historic qualification to Istanbul over Fenerbahce in the penalty shootout, with the hero Konstantinos Tzolakis: grabbed three runs in the heart-wrenching process, displayed the personality of a big player even though he is only 22 years old by sending his team to the semi-finals of a European competition for the first time in their history.

Everyone’s spirits are high, the double battle with Aston Villa is expected to be impressive and it might be a good thing that the Piraeus will not have the label of the favorite, in order to find themselves in the final of the OPAP Arena with one of Fiorentina or Victoria Plzen.

On the other hand, the Thessalonians looked like they are not on the same level as Club Brugge and their elimination with a 2-0 defeat can only be described as fair. The “black and white” put an end to a European course that started in July, it included big nights, qualifiers that will go down in history like with Dinamo Zagreb and he will have to “step” on it to appear even better next year.

Data, the psychological state of the two teams will determine a lot in Sunday’s derby, since it is a question mark if Olympiacos appears grounded, having left the great success behind, while on the other hand PAOK will be called upon to react, in a game without tomorrow for both teams if they want to remain in the battle to win the most spectacular championship of all time in Greek football…
