I hope he gives us three penalties, to make up for the many non-calls against you guys in the past.

Slow news day

Nothing more embarrassing than when a PAO supporter speaks up. Your players are the dirtiest in Greece, and when you can't handle an epic ass whooping, you immediately nuzzle at the teat of your fellow Athenian clubs. Very sad. By the way, whose back did we stab? I can assure you that PAOK has no intention of "self relegation" - we wouldn't want to join you in the second division (you know, once your bankruptcy and subsequent third division exile are complete).

The playoffs are definitely not over, and we've won much harder games this season than what we are going to face. Hell, we're "only" in second place. I still predict we'll end the playoffs in first place.

Coulibaly will be available, but Mesto is now out due to injury. There won't be a better opportunity for us in an away game against these guys than right now. Looking forward to it. -edit- Actually I'm seeing on some sites that Mesto is just questionable. I guess we'll see!

No reason we should lose either match vs Panionios. With any luck these guys will take a few points from AEK to help us out, like last season. Real pleased they already managed a draw vs PAO.

Varela is out for four weeks, his season is done. Seems to have a tear in an abdominal muscle? Similar to Prijovic, he chose surgery for a faster recovery time (vs the minimum six weeks it would take to heal on its own).

For sure. We're in second place, an away win against either PAO or AEK will be huge. Varela in tears as he left the field.

Very very poor match, in the dying minutes now

Yellow to Matos, who is having a bad game. Kitsiou might be a good option at this point. -edit- Kitsiou does indeed come in at the start of the second half

The construction worker gets the first yellow of the game

Simoes given a slap on the wrist for his takedown of Campos

Kitsiou/Warda/Kace warming up. Kind of early if you ask me.

Ahhh Pelkas you've got to score on those chances

Here's one link, bad quality. Aklautoi has two but it's taking a while to get in. http://alivefootballstreaming.com/ch13/ AEK just scored

In addition to Zeca being out, Villafanez hurt his back and is done for the season. I also read that Coulibaly might miss the next game due to illness.

Looks pretty empty from the pics. I'm hoping a site other than Aklautoi has a working stream, I'm sure that guy's going to be very obnoxious

Masouras has scored for Panionios, about 20 minutes left. Stats have gone significantly in their favor since halftime.

Here's the lineup. Pelkas gets the start over Henrique:

Let's hope for a 1-1 draw and many reds

A win would have guaranteed his team stays in the Bundesliga (they drew today, which is still a good result). One game left, bottom of the table looks like this: 13 Mainz 37 14 Augsburg 37 15 Wolfsburg 37 16 Hamburger 35 17 Ingolstadt 31 18 Darmstadt 24 Hamburg is in the relegation playoff space (16th), and are coincidentally playing #15, Wolfsburg, on the 20th. A draw or loss by Hamburg will guarantee Augsburg stays in the top flight. If Hamburg wins, Augsburg will need to draw or win vs Hoffenheim (which is a tall order, considering their form this season - they're tied with Dortmund at 61 points). I feel Stafylidis is one or two good seasons away from a move to a good team, staying in the top tier will go a long way towards his development and exposure.

The 18ada: Γλύκος , Μπρκιτς , Λέοβατς , Μάτος , Κίτσιου , Κρέσπο , Μαλεζάς , Βαρέλα , Κάνιας , Κάτσε , Τσίμιροτ , Μπίσεσβαρ , Πέλκας , Κάμπος , Ουάρντα , Ενρίκε , Πρίγιοβιτς , Αθανασιάδης

If he goes all-out for this game, it would also make sense to play Henrique. We have a healthy back line and are playing in Toumba, there's no better time to throw in a creative wild card than now. I think he and Pelkas would be fun to watch together as well. Same with Warda, for that matter.

^ I'd be totally fine with that, myself

He had a viral infection, from what I understand. They're saying now that he'll definitely be available for the game. I would be surprised if he plays for more than a half, though - Ivic has been very open about how Biseswar can't handle a game every three days, and he may be needed vs PAO.
