- Panathinaikos won a 2nd derby, beating PAOK away despite the hosts scoring first. Much like it happened against AEK. They continue without dropping points and maintain their 7 point lead over Olympiacos, while opening one from PAOK as well.
- Olympiacos beat Atromitos at home in the first match of Michel's return at the bench, in probably their most productive match so far. AEK started with a win in their new stadium, against bottom placed Ionikos.
- More points dropped for Aris, Volos manages to beat the second black and yellow team after doing it against AEK.
- Impressive away win for Panaitolikos against PAS (whose coach might not last long), first wins for Asteras and Lamia.

- AEK won the derby of the matchday, very easily. The score could have been 0-4 or 0-5, AEK was much better than Aris yesterday.
- Panathinaikos and Olympiacos got difficult wins in the final 15' of their matches.
- PAOK dropped points to 13th placed Levadiakos in added time, and was lucky not to lose (VAR turned a penalty call to a foul outside the box).
- Volos remains high in the standings, Ionikos failed to win again. Atromitos is consistently good against the other small teams.

Stavros Sarafis, one club man and our alltime topscorer passed away today at the age of 72.

Kalo taxidi, Kaiser!

- PAOK put another nail in Olympiacos' coffin with an away win the matchday's derby tonight. PAOK was efficient in set pieces and counter attacks and survived the desperate pressure of Olympiacos in the final minutes. PAOK took a much needed breath while Olympiacos showed once again that the only possible outcome for this season is fan violence against the players, otherwise the sewer pit that the club has become cannot be cleaned.
- Panathinaikos and AEK got another win each, with the greens being 8/8 and AEK needing an added time penalty to beat Atromitos. Both of them have a large gap from Olympiacos now, and Panathinaikos remains 6 points ahead of AEK.
- Aris was very bad against bottom placed Ionikos but managed to win and Alan Pardew avoided the sack. Volos keeps flying high, while the bottom 5 (I don't put Asteras in this Group) will fight to avoid relegation.

Cup matches midweek, with Olympiacos, PAOK, Panathinaikos and Aris receiving a bye to the Round of 16.

Are you serious? Ffs, it's just football.

And besides Oly there are also 13 other teams each wanting to win the league. Oly don't have a divine right over the title.
Anyway how will they attract good players, if the players know they are in danger of being physically assaulted at any time someone decides they are not good enough for the team?

It's my prediction, knowing what's what in Greece and observing the climate surrounding Olympiacos the last 2 months.

Oly don't have a divine right over the title.

This is exactly what the majority of the fans believe, including all the ultras. The fact they are not more militant so far is that most of the ultras are in the owner's payroll.

I had missed this rebranding

I think it's an A and a K put together!

[Firnen]

Nikos Nioplias is fired from OFI. The last championship-winning manager of Panathinaikos (in 2010) is the 5th coach to be fired this season in the Greek SuperLeague.

He will be replaced, according to Lithuanian media, by a coach that @nogomet and the other Croatian members of the forum hold in high esteem: Valdas Dambrauskas.
