Head-to-head statistics Panathinaikos - Paksi

Panathinaikos Athens Team Overview
Panathinaikos had a decent July in preseason, losing just once - 1-4 to Rapid. In their other friendlies they were comfortable, scoring at least three goals more often than not. In the first leg against Paksi, Pao took the lead through an own goal on 41 minutes, then doubled it ten minutes after the break.
Statistically, Jakob Neestrup's side put together a strong performance. 2.57 xG, six shots on target, five clear-cut chances - plenty going on in attack. Had the finishing been sharper, it could easily have been a rout. That might still come in the second leg.

Paksi Team Overview
Hungary put in a far from impressive performance - they came in as underdogs and played like it. Still, Paksi managed to pull one back at 0-2 and make things interesting again. They weren't bad - 15 shots, 0.87 xG, more corners than the opposition. Energetic enough, decent shape, but lacking any real creativity going forward.
Can Paksi's players hope for anything away from home? On paper, probably not. For all their spirit, the Hungarians are weaker than their opponents in pretty much every department. The stadium in Athens is a tough place for any visiting side. But Paksi have no choice - they need to go to Greece and win if they want to stay in the competition.

⭐ Editor's Pick
Panathinaikos showed in the first leg that they can be dangerous going forward and create chances. At home, the Greeks should generate plenty of opportunities - and convert a few of them. Paksi have a decent attack, but away from home they're unlikely to do much in front of goal. We see the hosts winning comfortably, 3-0. Worth considering a Panathinaikos win with a -1.5 handicap.
