PAOK - Pinar Karsiyaka I will bet on PAOK again. I'm not objective, of course, because this is my favorite basketball team. She also paid me with her qualification at 16, so I will support her again.
But beyond the emotional reasons, I believe that there is value. It seems that the team has dropped its weight in Europe and it is only by chance that games like this are not against Trikala. PAOK managed to win with a poor performance. Usually after a bad appearance comes a good one and that is what I hope for tomorrow. In addition, let us not forget that many players - especially foreigners - play better in European games, because to be honest there are mainly judged contracts. The Greek championship can wait, since everything will be judged in the play-offs and the motivation even then I am reduced. So, in summary, I believe that PAOK will have a strong motivation tomorrow and will be seen on the field.
Competitively, the hosts have no problems and will line up in full. Goss had a problem, but it seems he overcame it. He will of course show on the field and his presence is crucial. PAOK is an experienced team, but on the other hand, Karsiyaka is not a rookie. It is based on its Americans and its power is its headquarters. Depending on the mood of the Americans, her games also flow. I estimate that PAOK has a way of dealing with such teams. PAOK lags behind in quality, but it is a more organized team and I would say that it has more depth on its bench.
Karsiyaka finished 2nd in its group below Monaco with a record of 10-4, while PAOK 3rd with a record of 7-7 under Tenerife and Ludwigsburg. The numbers show Karsiyaka, but at least for tomorrow I will go with the hosts.
PAOK - Pinar Karsiyaka | 1 | Stoiximan | 1.73 | 5/10
