Giannina vs AEK Athens FC Match Preview

For the 16th matchday of the Greek Super League, PAS Giannina welcomes AEK.

PAS Giannina ended 2022 with a positive result, for the 15th matchday, they drew 1-1 in Lamia against the local team. Halfway through the replay, they found themselves behind in the score, but a few minutes later they equalized to set up the final score.

This was a result that leaves them with mixed feelings as on the one hand for the 5th consecutive match PAS Giannina could not get the victory but on the other hand, they avoided defeat by a team with the same goal, as both trying to avoid relegation. The end of that round found PAS Ioannina in 11th place with 11 points.

Another victory for AEK in the Super League, last week they humiliated Volos 4-0 on the road. In the first half, they were impressive and by scoring 3 times they practically "locked" the three points, in the second half they slowed down but still found another goal giving dimensions of triumph to their victory.

This was the second consecutive victory for AEK which reached 35 points and taking advantage of the false step of the league leader Panathinaikos at the same time reduced the margin from the top spot to 4 points.

AEK is the undeniable favorite of this match as they not only excel in quality but also impress with their recent performances. PAS Giannina, which will be deprived of the support of their fans due to suspension, is without any victory in the last period, but when playing at home, they are competitive and score easily. My pick here is the Over 2.5 goals alternative at 1.90 odds.
