Hello once again from Greece!I'll have to disagree with Isovitis point of view cause(A)Lymperopoulos will play no matter what and even though he wont be fully fit he can make the diffrence in this final by keeping the ball and passing it timely and accurately to his team's wingers.He is a player that won nothing in his 10 years as a player in Panathinaikos(Pao won the double after Lymperopoulos left for Aek!!)and he also missed Euro where we became Europian champs so he is considered to be very unlucky as he's is considered to be one of Greece best attackers(he plays behind the striker) and technical players.He sees this final as maybe a last(?)chance to win a trophy and thats the reason he overcame his injury(fractured pelvis)in such a short timetable!!!(B)Olympiakos squad is playing horrible the past 1/2 month cause his players after winning the championship are more concerned in where they ll spent their vacations then how to win a game.What i mean to say is Oly 's dullness the past month might play its part in this game.Oly players were playing like they had nothing to play for and his players were forced to make statements such as ""We ll play in the final the way we know and we ll present a team that knows how to get a result" etc...cause had to say smth to ease the fans!!!Add Rivaldo absence due to a virus that kept him out for over a month(and in my opinion a huge reason why Oly is playin horrible from there on)and u have a derby in your hands!!Aek will propably finish 2nd in Greek league(needs a draw or win in home vs Scoda fc)so if they ll win the final it will be a super duper year for them?(lets not forget that last summer before the championship begun Aek faced relegation due to millions of Euro owed to the state but former Aek captain and now owner of the team Nikolaidis(remember him from Euro?)managed to make a use of a goverment article 44(an article used to save companies from bankruptcy) and they detuction of the amount owned to the state detucted to minimum and Aek was saved!My guess is that we ll see a tight match with lots of cards,tacles,power and no technique due to the loss of Ribo.Aek midfielders and defenders are powerful but their lack of finesse and creativety leads the match to an
under 2.5 goals final and i think that Aek can get smth from this match(possibly in overtime).Thanks for having the patience to read the entire post lol
