A derby between the 2 biggest favorites to win the title takes place indoors at OAKA where the typical home team Panathinaikos welcomes AEK.
Panathinaikos is in a very bad period, where after the defeats in the Euroleague, it made its first defeat in the domestic championship since the amazing Lavrio this year, having a bad 2nd half. What if the coach left ??? Absolutely no reaction from the players in the match with Zenit that once again started very badly and then ran to cover. Although in my opinion the Russians cut more than the Panathinaikos players reacted. The new coach will be the Israeli Katas who had passed through Athens as a Panathinaikos player. Except for one more match, August, who did not have a real participation in the matches so far.
On the other hand, AEK is not at its best. He easily beat the Colossus inside (with Lagford being once again the top scorer for the team while a pleasant surprise Rogavopoulos who scored 12 points with a very good performance) but for the BCL he lost to Hapoel 77-71 and put in danger her qualification as she wants a victory or even a defeat up to 9 points from the Belarusian Tsmoki. The racing problems continue as well Sloter, Zisis and Katsivelis will be absent from today.
In summary, both teams are not at their best but I expect a reaction from Panathinaikos who can take advantage of AEK's shortcomings in the region and achieve a victory that will raise his psychology for the future.
The point I choose is ... Panathinaikos (-6.5 & Over 150.5 pts) in performance 2.53 at stoiximan.
