Re: 11-14 May: Greece

AEK - PAO:Play offs May 14th


Probably line ups according to sportfm:

AEK (4-4-2)

Moreto

Ramos Papastathpoulos Alves Lagos



Entinio Rivaldo Ensaliwa Madouka



Lyberopulos Blanco




Panathinaikos (4-2-3-1)


Malartz

Morris Sariegi Pantidos Seric


Matos Simao


Romero Ninis Dimoutsos


N' Doye


Well...this is a game without any significance. PAO won the place for next CL and team's coach Jose Peseiro has decided to let all the international players out from that game so as they can rest. If this is gonna be PAO' s line up, it will be the first time that all these players will play together. This team is very young and unexperienced (for example center back Pantidos is a player of the second team).
AEK, on the other hand, has also a lot of absences but their line up seems quite reasonable.

In general, IMO this was a no bet game but if these line ups will be confirmed i see great value in HW and i will risk more with AH as i expect AEK to be more determined as they want (i imagine) to take revenge for their heavy loss in first round and i think their first 11 are more experienced from PAO's ones. I also think that PAO' s defence will be really shaky, as Seric is a 'danger' player for his own team, Morris is more center back than right back (a position that he doesn't like), Sariegi is a mediorce player and for Pantidos it will be the first time he ll play in such a level. I' m afraid (as a Panathinaikos fan) that Lymbe, Ribo and Blanco will gonna have...party time! Ok, they have nothing to play for, but a derby is a derby even when they play...chess and proud and honor is always on!I m afraid that coach Peseiro (probably in his last game as PAO' s coach) makes a huge mistake for PAO's history...I hope i am wrong...
