Varela's injury was confirmed as minor, he *should* be available on Wednesday, but Ivic may sit him out as a precaution. CB is the position I'm least worried about personally, Malezas would be just fine starting in his place.

Also, I think Leto won't play in this next match (disciplined), and possibly will miss the leg in Toumba.

 

My guess:

               --Glykos--

--Matos--Malezas--Crespo--Leovac--

       --Canas--Shakhov--

  --Campos--Biseswar--Henrique--

               --Klaus--

Should be an interesting game. Here's an article about (what they assume are) Ivic's thoughts: http://www.sport24.gr/football/omades/Paok/o-ivits-exei-hdh-xaraksei-to-plano-toy-hmitelikou.4619959.html

Basically - go there with a "don't concede" mentality. Sounds like we'll be playing Canas, Biseswar, Campos, Koulouris, Malezas (none of which are a surprise). Rely on a counterattacking game, possibly with a 3-5-2 formation.

The remainder of the players are pretty obvious - Glykos, Matos, Leovac, Crespo, and both of Cimirot and Shakhov.

Going in with a defensive posture always makes me nervous, since it's a great way to lose a game. I guess we'll see.

Here are the people who are going to Athens: Γλύκο, Σιαμπάνη, Μάτος, Κίτσιου, Λέοβατς, Μαλεζά, Κρέσπο, Βαρέλα, Σάκχοφ, Τσίμιροτ, Κάνιας, Μπίσεσβαρ, Πέλκα, Ουάρντα, Ενρίκε, Κάμπος, Ματθαίου, Αθανασιάδη, Κουλούρη, Πρίγιοβιτς

Yeah, you read that right - Prijovic. Wow. Also notable - no Kace.

game day! I'm stoked fellas ... some a-hole put a client meeting on my calendar for noon. sadly for them, they will be getting herded out of here much faster than they realize. ha.

Predictions? All I know is, we have to presume Prijovic starts right? I just assume the other spots will be the typical, Ivic Value Meal #1.

Ivic is very conservative, as much as I'd love to see Prijovic smack them around I can't see him getting more than a few minutes. Hell, this could just be a psychological trick by Ivic, making them wonder about what is going on with this serial killer we have on our bench

Well you really can't start Klaus he in the worst form I have ever seen him ... So it has to be Koulouris? I think the midfield is almost certainly Canas-Shakov-Cimirot, especially if we are playing for the clean sheet and just relying on counters. Otherwise, I put Canas on the bench, Biseswar at the 10 and use Djalma and Pedro on the wings

Klaus might get the start due to his experience. Would be a hell of a time to suddenly get back into form.

The more I think about it, though, the more I think Ivic might use a surprise 3-5-2.

                       --Glykos--

           --Varela--Malezas--Crespo--

--Matos--Canas--Shakhov--Cimirot--Leovac--

                --Campos--Klaus--

 

At least one site, though, is predicting Biseswar as a winger opposite Campos. So, really, I guess we have no idea what we'll see.

 

What I do know, is that I am also pumped about this game.

Warda is a nice little player although I sort of hate that he gets time at the expense of Pelkas' development ... It's not like Pelkas has disappointed when given time on the pitch (for the most part) - although to be fair, Warda has been better on the ball so I get it ... Regardless, I love the lineup. Embros Aete!

Biseswar and  Klaus did not even dress up.

On the bench for PAOK:  Siabanis, Kitsiou, Varela, Cimirot, Mattheou, Pelkas, Prijovic

Surprisingly it lloks like Campos is playing on the left side.

I say it's a good sign - Pelkas and Prijovic as subs
