The Stoiximan Basket League is slowly entering the final stretch of its third round and PAOK, despite the defeat by AEK, is in 8th place, which gives a ticket to the playoffs. After this result, however, he no longer completely defines his own destiny.
More specifically, the “doubleheader” has 36 points (10-16 record) and is followed by Karditsa with 34 points (9-17 record), while Marousi is tied with Lavrio at 9-16 with the two teams competing tonight ( 20:15). In this match, which will conclude the action of the last 5th day in the division, PAOK prefers a victory for Amarousiou.
This is because if Nikos Vetoula’s team wins today, they will “catch” PAOK in 8th place, so this will be decided in the game between them next Saturday in Pylaia. However, if Lavrio beats Marousi today, PAOK will be in even more trouble.
In this case, in addition to a victory in the match of the last match of the Play out with Maroussi, they will expect Apollo Patras to make a breakthrough and defeat Lavrio. Otherwise, he will be out of the 8th place and of course out of the play offs.
