Olympiacos and rivals PAOK will battle for three points in a Greek Super League round 24 fixture on Sunday (February 23rd). The game will be played at the Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium.
The home side are coming into the game on the back of a 4-0 away win over Panserraikos. Ayoub El Kaabi had an eventful first half that saw him miss a 20th-minute penalty before converting the rebound and completing a brace seven minutes later. Chiquinho and Gelson Martins added second-half goals to complete the rout.
PAOK, meanwhile, fell to a 2-0 defeat away to FCSB in the second leg of their UEFA Europa League playoff tie. Juri Cisotti and David Miculescu scored in either half to help the Romanians advance with a 4-1 aggregate victory.
The White-Blacks will shift their focus to the domestic scene, where their last game saw them thrash Lamia 7-0 at home.
The victory left them in fourth spot in the standings, having garnered 43 points from 23 games. Olympiacos lead the way at the summit with 51 points.
