In detail what he writes in SportDay:
The season says that whoever until now in the AEK-Panathinaikos games carried the designation of the favorite, believed that they would easily or difficultly win and paid for it. Now this characterization seems to be carried by Panathinaikos.
Terim’s team reaches the derby for the first time this year with four wins in a row. But all this in my opinion counts for very little since AEK needs the victory to reach the match-bowl with PAOK in Thessaloniki to win the championship. It seems very difficult to me, not to take her, but not to take her because her motivation is huge. Panathinaikos is still far from winning the championship. AEK just needs a win in Toumba…
The difficult victory of AEK against Aris creates the impression that the champion is not in her best form. Just a week ago, however, he had an amazing first half against Aris, in which he played high-intensity football like he knows how.
It is true that AEK suffered against Olympiakos and saw PAOK turn 0-2 into 2-2. But the game against Panathinaikos is different. Almeida will have Garcia, Gacinovic, Mandalo back. Panathinaikos are doing well, so well that it seems unlikely they will lose tonight. But surprisingly, this – based on previous derbies – is rather a bad sign.
