Meanwhile, AEK Athens have conceded an average of 2.6 goals in their last ten away games, though their season-long away average is just 1 goal conceded per match.

Yellow Card Prediction
There have been under 5.5 yellow cards shown in 10 of Panathinaikos’ last 11 matches. Additionally, Panathinaikos themselves have picked up fewer than 2.5 cards in eight of their previous nine games.
