Panathinaikos vs Olympiakos Match Preview

Panathinaikos comes from a big win over Atromitos by 2-3 in Peristeri for the previous round of the Greek Super League. Their defense was quite weak in the game, but the strikers brought victory to their team after a very good performance. In the January transfer window, Panathinaikos bought three players, and so far, they improved a lot Laszlo Boloni's team. Sokratis Dioudis remains doubtful for today's game due to injury and his presence will be decided at the last minute.

In the last five rounds of the league, Panathinaikos registered 4 wins and 1 draw.

Olympiakos, on the other hand, played against OFI in the previous round and prevailed easily by 3-0 at home. They were far better in the pitch and fairly got all three points. In the Greek Cup, they faced Aris, where the team played under heavy rotation by the call of manager Pedro Martins. The team performed well for yet another match and got a great lead on the aggregate scoreline. The only missing for the league leaders might be M'Vila, who remains doubtful.

Olympiakos continues their amazing campaign in the Greek Super League, registering 5 wins in the last five rounds.

The midweek game against PAS Giannina was canceled and this gave some rest to the hosts and get prepared for today's derby. Panathinaikos will try to get a positive result here without playing very offensively, while Olympiakos has a very difficult match in the following days against PSV Eindhoven and things will be tough for them. Under 2.5 goals to be scored is my call for this one.
