With three matches, the curtain opens today on the "8" phase of the Greek Cup in football. Let's go see them one by one.
AEK - Volos (17:00)
AEK comes from the home (unexpected) defeat by Aris in the league but has now turned its attention to the Greek Cup, which is its first goal, as in the league it can not claim anything more as it already has in its pocket a ticket to the playoffs.
Its goal is to lay the foundations for its qualification to the semifinals of the institution from today. With several absences, Volos, which after the defeat from Tripoli lost all hope for a presence in the playoffs and will chase the distinction through the Cup.
Bookmaker Predictions
AEK is not in its best phase, but games like these can be won. Volos after the losses of January does not present the same competitive face. Our choice is the combo: 1 & under3.5 at 1.87 by Stoiximan.

PAOK - Lamia (19:00)
The "Bicep of the North" comes from the home draw against Apollon and wants to return immediately to victories and convincing appearances.
The recent developments with the justification for the case of multi-ownership with Xanthi revived the morale in the ranks of the team that now has the conquest of the Cup as its main goal to ... save the year.
Lamia did not play at the weekend, they will try with defensive orientations initially not to lose and if this can not be avoided, to happen in a marginal way in order to have hopes in the replay.
It should be noted that the team of Michalis Grigoriou will play without many key players, who decided to rest in view of the games that follow, given that the main goal is to stay.
Bookmaker Predictions
There is no question how likely the ace is, who has now reached the Tartars. The odds are slaughtered in the over as well. Our choice is the corners of PAOK, which in its last games are enough. The -1.5 handicap corner in favor of PAOK in the first part is offered at 1.65 by Pamestoixima.gr.
Olympiacos - Aris (21:30)
Olympiacos makes ... a parade in the championship where the title is considered a given. His goals, of course, are the Cup, which he wants to win for the 2nd consecutive year. It should be noted that the newly acquired Papastathopoulos and Lala were included in the mission of the "red and whites".
On the opposite bank, the team of Akis Mantzios comes from a great result that boosts the confidence of the club. The away dominance for the championship against AEK gives the necessary impetus to the team of Thessaloniki for a particularly difficult match.
Betting prognosis
Game between the 1st and 2nd team of the score. The tradition between them in recent years (1-2, 2-4, 3-1, 4-2, 1-2, 4-1 the last 6 independent games between them) leads us to the g / g + over offered at 2.32 by Betshop.
