Olympiacos-Lamia: To close the historic 2024 at the top of the “red and white”

He wants to close a historic year for the club with smiles Olympic. The “red and whites” in their last game in 2024, a year combined with the conquest of the Conference League and the end of which marks the beginning of the celebrations for the 100 years since their creation, host the Ghoul (19:00, Cosmote TV, bwinSPORT FM, www.sportfm.gr) at “Georgios Karaiskakis” and are looking for a return to winning ways to stay at the top of the standings.

His team Jose Luis Mendiliber made a big splash last Monday by drawing 1-1 at Leoforo with Athens Kallithea. He conceded the goal in stoppage time, had a poor performance overall and the transfer… bells rang. Because Olympiacos is called upon to cover its gaps, especially in the creative part, in January and it is already moving in this direction. He remains alone first but is now +1 from AEK, PAOK and +2 from Panathinaikos.

“It was definitely a bad result and in football it’s the results that count. I, however, as a coach need to analyze more things. I’m re-watching the game to analyze why we lost points. We didn’t beat the last team in the table and that’s very bad, but the games are not a phase. There are other things. We tried hard, we persevered a lot, we created several chances and in yet another match we were rarely threatened. These are also important. We definitely have to win the games”Medilibar pointed out to Cosmote TV, among others.

THE Olympic is 5-2-0 at home with 15-5 goals and three straight, looking to make it four. The Basque coach is counting on Ortega, Ciquinho, Mouzakiti and Willian again for today’s game, while the suspended Ese is out, as well as Apostolopoulos and Doe. The mission in detail: Anagnostopoulos, Biancon, Paschalakis, Tsiquinho, Costinia, Garcia, El Caabi, Martins, Stamenic, Kostoulas, Yaremchuk, Masouras, Mouzakitis, Ortega, Pirola, Retsos, Rodiney, Karmo, Tzolakis, Velde, Willian, Oliveira.

OR Ghoul now co-exist with Athens Kallithea at the bottom of the table with 9 points. Two close defeats and a total of just one win in the league, which came in the premiere of the Stoiximan Super League against Panaitolikos in Agrinio. A team with quite a problematic roster, has issues offensively and tries with massive defense to get the best out of its games. Worst attack in the division with 9 goals and 5th worst defense with 20 passives. Last matchday, they gave AEK a hard time, but they succumbed to the pressure of the “yellow and black” and were defeated 1-0 in a match that played full defense.

Away from home, the Fthiots have 6 of their 9 points (1-3-3 record with 6-10 goals) and count two draws in their three most recent games. The need for transfer reinforcement is imperative, if he wants to hope that he can save the year with a big demarcation. Regarding today’s match, Leonidas Vokolos does not count on Furtados, while Bykov is available again. The mission in detail: Raton, Kostic, Sourdis, Dentakis, Saramantas, Andrade, Sandberg, Ring, Vitlis, Siovas, Radonia, Kornezos, Gyftomitros, Giannoutsos, Bykov, Athanasakopoulos, Doiranlis, Tsiakas, Tereziou, Vlahomitros, Enriques, Simoni.
