GAMES:  61    WINS:  14    TIES:  22    LOSSES:  25

[Blackhawk]

Panionios has several issues ahead of this game. Couple players have been fined and banned for 30 days by their front office. Also one of their best players Siopis is injured and will most likely not play. On top of that Lambrou can't be used by their coach since he is our player.

As far as PAOK is concerned, Pelkas, Zambrano and possibly Mauricio will be back.  They have a good midfield, but they are quite weak defensively. I expect a tough game, but with a little luck we could be looking for our first away win.

[Yiankos]

Ο Πανιώνιος είναι μεγάλη ομάδα όσα προβλήματα κι αν έχει. Αν δείξουμε το ίδιο πρόσωπο που είχαμε δείξει με Λεβαδειακό, Λάρισα κλπ τότε θα χάσουμε εύκολα. Ούτε ισοπαλία. Αν τώρα παίξουμε έστω στο 60% αυτού που μπορούμε τότε θα μπορέσουμε να κερδίσουμε και επιτέλους να σπάσουμε την γκίνια των εκτός.

[pash]

Agreed, though I'll also add that we need to change our mentality. Perhaps our 400 fans will help on that front.

[pash]

Here's the lineup. No Leovac - please God let it be Deligiannidis and not Crespo who plays. Mauricio also not traveling to Athens.

Ρέι , Πασχαλάκης , Δεληγιαννίδης , Μάτος , Κρέσπο , Μαλεζάς , Βαρέλα , Σάκχοφ , Κάνιας , Τσίμιροτ , Πέλκας , Βιεϊρίνια , Κάμπος , Λημνιός , Ελ Καντουρί , Μακ , Πρίγιοβιτς , Κουλούρης

Would expect to see essentially the same starting lineup as last time, just with Prijovic in there.

[italosPAOK4]

nikh kai sunexizoume gia to prwta8lhma

[paokarag4]

I dare say Vieirinha will play at left back again. 

With so many starters out for Panionios, and some turmoil off field you'd have to say its a big chance to win away from home and get that monkey off the back. 
3 points tonight, no excuses 

[PAOKSYD]

Next three games for us starting tonight are crucial. A win here at all costs! Would love to see if we could start to git the form we did this time last year, heres for hoping lets see. 

 

[pash]

What's the deal with their troubles? As in, why are players suspended or whatever?

The 29 for Panionios is a manga!

[teke817]

Glad to see Mak getting a start ... so far I like how active we look. 

[pash]

Great second attempt by Koulouris just now. That first one (that yielded a corner for us) would have been a stunner if it had somehow gone in.

[teke817]

nice move by Campos

[Nea Bafra]

nice cut in and shot by campos

[teke817]

Campos is feeling confident today ... that was a wicked shot

[Bananas]

Aye, great shot by Campos.

[Bananas]

Savvidis still hasn't cut his hair since going to Panionios ...

[Nea Bafra]

if i had hair i wouldn't either

[teke817]

Panionios is a good team, I am surprised they are playing so defensive. I mean, they have zero intentions of attacking. 

[pash]

Penalty for Koulouris (who should really have scored there)

Before the game because I thought to myself "no way they're going to sit back in their own home." And then 20 minutes later I realized they were doing just that.

[pash]

Koulouris converts the penalty, 0-1
