The action continues in the UEFA Europa Conference League as Panathinaikos play host to Dinamo Minsk at the Athens Olympic Stadium on Thursday. Rui Vitoria’s men are unbeaten in eight straight matches across all competitions and will be looking to extend this fine run.
Panathinaikos maintained their fine run of results last Sunday when they held on to see out a 1-0 victory over Levadiakos at the Levadia National Stadium in the Greek Super League.
Vitoria’s side have won four games on the bounce, including an impressive 2-0 victory over Welsh powerhouse The New Saints in the Conference League on December 12.
Having failed to win their opening three matches, Panathinaikos have picked up two back-to-back wins in the Conference League to surge into 18th place in the table and could move level on 10 points with 11th-placed Djurgarden with a win on Thursday.
Trending
Dinamo Minsk, on the other hand, picked up a much-needed victory last time out when they edged Larne FC 2-0 in their Conference League clash. Vadim Skripchenko’s men had lost each of their four games to start the European campaign while conceding nine goals and scoring just twice in that time.
With just three points from a possible 15, the Belarus outfit are currently 33rd in the Conference League standings, only above LASK, Petrocub and Larne.

While Dinamo Minsk will be looking to pick up from where they left off against Larne and make a late push for the playoffs, they are in for a tough 90 minutes against Panathinaikos, who have picked up seven wins and one draw from their last eight games.
Vitoria’s men are currently firing on all cylinders and we fancy them to come away with all three points.
