Returns the Greek Cup this week with the rematch of the first games being of great interest.
Note that we are in the quarterfinals (8), where the first matches ended with the hosts as winners.
Let's look at the results:
- Olympiacos - Aris: 2-1
- PAOK - Lamia: 5-2
- AEK - Volos: 4-2
- PAS Giannina - Panathinaikos: 2-1
Of course, as you understand, the matches between Aris and Olympiakos, as well as Panathinaikos and PAS Giannina, are more interesting.
It is worth noting that foreign referees were appointed by the KED to Alexandras Avenue and "Kleanthis Vikelidis".
The Panathinaikos-PAS Giannina match will be led by the 37-year-old Russian Kirill Levnikov, relatively inexperienced in Europe, having whistled just one group match (Europe).
The rematch of Aris with Olympiakos will be whistled by our acquaintance Finnish Matthias Gestranius, which was found in several more games in Greece in previous years.
