When PAOK hosts Panathinaikos in their upcoming game, they will be looking to maintain their pursuit of the Greek Super League 1 championship. Starting this match, the hosts will be ranked second, one spot ahead of Panathinaikos, in the championship round. PAOK defeated Olympiakos 2-0 in the previous round to put themselves in the running for the championship. With that victory, they now trail leaders AEK Athens by one point at 74. They capitalized on AEK's and Panathinaikos' defeats in the fourth round of the playoffs, thus it was a very delicious victory. PAOK will believe they have what it takes to push to the finish after finishing the regular season atop the rankings.

With a four-game league winning streak over Panathinaikos, PAOK will be optimistic going into this match. They have won three consecutive league games at home, so playing there also benefits them. They have won 13 of their last 17 league home games and just lost two.

These two teams will play for the sixth time this season, and Panathinaikos hopes to end PAOK's reign of terror. Only one of the five meetings saw Panathinaikos win handily. In the first leg of their cup match, they defeated PAOK 1-0; the match finished 2-2 overall, but they won on penalties. With six league encounters against PAOK, Panathinaikos is winless. Their lack of confidence will be exacerbated by the fact that they have lost their last two games and have not scored.

Panathinaikos' previous game ended in a 1-0 loss against Aris at home. After losing 3-0 to AEK Athens earlier, that defeat severely damaged their chances of winning the championship. In the fight for the title, Panathinaikos is now four points behind the pace. Their dreams of winning the title will evaporate if they lose here. Despite finishing third, they are still the favorites to play in Europe the following season. They will also play Aris in the cup final on May 25.

With a poor record going into this match, Panathinaikos' prospects of taking home the championship are dwindling. Their prior struggles against PAOK make this another difficult match for them. They play a PAOK team that is doing well at home, thus this match might be one-sided. In the match between PAOK and Panathinaikos, we think PAOK will prevail.
