Panathenaic
Previous game: 1-0 win over OFI. Tete’s goal in the 6th minute. OFI found good moments in the first half, and they had a goal.
He didn’t show any improvement, but he got what he wanted in a challenging ride at OFI last Sunday. Tete’s shot in the sixth minute was enough to win for Panathinaikos, who had several good moments to find the second goal, but also saw the opponent make steps, and the Cretans also had a job. Alonso’s team did not dominate, defensively they only improved in parts of the second half, they got a much needed win.
“Oxygen” of the “three points”, for psychological reasons and on the score, since he took advantage of the losses of the leading team. It was only the third win in eight league games, he scored again after 22 September in the 3-1 win over Panseraikos. With 12 points, it is in sixth place and is -3 behind Olympiakos and -5 from the top.
As far as the Conference League is concerned, it opened with a 1-1 away draw against Banja Luka, a poor result, accompanied by a mediocre performance. “I think Chelsea are higher than Ajax and Lance. We hope to put our terms in the game but we are realistic about who we are up against. There will be stages where we will be asked to protect more and vice versa. What we want is to control the game. We can win the race”, said coach Alonso.
Left without many options in attack, Sporar was included in the squad, despite missing several training sessions. Logically, Geremegev will play as a starter, unless the Uruguayan coach chooses Tete in the forward position. The report says that changes will be made to the lineup, after Sunday’s home derby against Aris.

CHELSEA
Previous game: 2-1 win away to Liverpool. 1-0 with Salah’s penalty, Jackson made it 1-1 in the 48th minute. Jones made it 2-1 in the 51st minute.
He had a difficult task in the derby away to Liverpool on Sunday evening, a sensible win. The performance wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t good either, there was definitely a lack of decisiveness in the attacking part, generally the level of decisions was low in the final third of the pitch. Liverpool took the lead in the 29th minute with a penalty, Chelsea equalized in the 48th minute, but it only lasted three minutes, when their morale plummeted. He had two good saves in the final, but he didn’t deserve anything from the game.
In another way he returned to win after seven games in all competitions, he has a record of 4-2-2 in the first eight games and with 14 points he is sixth in the Premier League, -3 from three and -7 from the top. As far as the Conference League is concerned, it is clear that it will leave him in second place in the League Stage at least, against Ghent he made some changes, but he had no problem winning 4-2.
The report says that even today there will be some differences in the original format. Koukoureya (Defenders, 7) is back, Fofana reported, but is not on the European list, as are Palmer, Lavia and Chilwell. Maresca Caicedo, Jackson, Colwill, Gusto and James also left out!
