PAOK take on the visitors Panathinaikos at “Toumba Stadium” in the last gameweek of the season in the Greek Super League. The match will be played in Thessaloniki on Wednesday, May 31st.
Last round PAOK were defeated by AEK Athens FC on the road with 0:1 scoreline. That loss made tougher the battle for the first position in the Super League Play Offs Group as well as for the place in the UEFA Champions League next season. After four rounds in the Play Offs Group PAOK have eight points earned, 3-2 goal difference and the match vs. Panathinaikos abandoned before time in which three players of each side were dismissed. At the moment such results allow “Dikefalos Tou Vorra“ to occupy the third position in the standings being one point below the leading AEK Athens FC. However, that head-to-head between PAOK and Panathinaikos dated the 17th of May is still in question whether the makeup game will take place or not. At their own turf PAOK demonstrate solid performance recording 12 victories and four losses in 16 encounters in 2017.

Panathinaikos won two back-to-back clashes with the same 1:0 scoreline vs. AEK Athens FC and vs. Panionios getting back to the battle for the UEFA Champions League next season. “Oi Prasinoi” have eight points taken alike PAOK plus their head-to-head on Wednesday and unfinished game dated the 17th of May. On the road Panathinaikos show mediocre results: the side has been failing to win across four matches in a row since the 2nd of April getting three defeats and one draw in them.
Head-to-heads between PAOK and Panathinaikos are rather explosive and that was shown by the recent fight. The upcoming game is likely to be as emotional as the previous one because the opponents will claim for the UEFA Champions League and substantial payments binding with it. I believe that this time emotions will embody not in a scuffle, bit in scored goals.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.0 scored goals.
