Re: Greece: 29/30 Dec
Just a quick note on today's games as time is limited at the moment.
Atromitos v Veria
I have said in the past that Veria's qualities are mostly defensive. Atromitos has a better side and had so far some interesting refereeing that has never been against the team (you might think this is not football analysis but in Greece it very much is unfortunately). I would say Atromitos has a good chance to win this one.
Levadeia v Asteras Tripolis
Asteras has been very impressive so far but mainly at home. Levadeia is one of the weaker teams in the division but it would not surprise me if they manage to stay up at the end. Difficult game to call. Under is probable but odds reflect that.
Panionios v OFI
Panionios the better team here (in fact Panionios should have a go for the fifth place of the final standings imo). However they have not been playing as expected and OFI has been showing some improvement after the coach change.
Kalamaria v Iraklis
No home advantage here as both teams play in the same field this year. Important game for both, Iraklis with a new coach so one might expect some of the new-coach effect but I would not be so sure. Iraklis has trouble to create anything in the attacking part and some of their points so far have been a matter of luck rather than quality. Difficult to call but I would probably go for balanced odds in this one and I would not make Iraklis favourites.
Aris - Panathinaikos
Aris is strong, especially at home although their record is not that good. They have faced already at home Olympiakos and Aek, managed only one point but still they matched their opponents in these games. I would say that a similar thing may happen today. I would not have Panathinaikos as the favourites here as they simply do not play well enough. Aris has not lost in its last 4 games against Panathinaikos, won both games last year and an Aris' win is not out of the question in this one. I went for draw no bet.
Aek v Paok
Paok is very weak away from home, just one point so far. Aek will want to go back to the top after Olympiakos won yesterday and I think they have a good chance to do so. I will be a bit careful as I went big in the same fixture last year and it ended 0-0 (although Paok did not create anything in that game). I would still think though that Aek will win this one.
