Greek Super League - Panionios Athens vs Iraklis Thessaloniki Football betting preview

Iraklis are doing fantastic at the moment flying when they play away games as they won 0-1 at AEK, drew with Atromitos 1-1 and won 0-3 at Xanthi. But we should not forget hard times in Thessaloniki where they seemed pretty clueless what to do with the ball and wasted the few chances they created.

Panionios lost to superior Galatasaray but I think they certainly have more quality than Iraklis. Moreover they were a bit unlucky to concede a fake penalty and get Makos disqualified leaving them with only 10 players for half an hour. The fans of Panionios will be expecting a good result as they want the coach to continue at the team where they believe he has done a good job bringing a potential Superleague star almost every season and leading them to the Uefa Cup group stage twice!

Iraklis may miss an important first team player as the creative mind of midfielder Emerson won't be there for the coach Jovanovic as he struggled to keep on his feet during the morning training today. Nikolopoulos is also a doubt and if he plays he won't be 100% ready. Panionios may be a bit tired from the Uefa match but I think their desire to prove that they deserve better will help them win this one, even by 1 goal. I doubt Iraklis will score again and I think that this game is definitely lost for the visitors IF they concede first. Iraklis are overrated at the moment and this home win could be in the region of 1.5 if the teams were performing differently. Home win it is for me, but with cautious stakes as the luck of Iraklis may be extended for 1 more game.
