PAOK vs Aberdeen Predictions

PAOK will feel confident of their chances of picking up another win on Thursday.

I expect the Greeks to score a comfortable victory with at least three goals scored in Thessaloníki.

PAOK have won 7 of their last 8 home matches
PAOK scored 2 goals or more in 7 of their last 8 home matches
PAOK have seen over 2.5 goals in 6 of their last 7 home matches
PAOK have won their last 3 home matches (Conference League)
Aberdeen have lost 3 of their last 4 away matches (Conference League)
Aberdeen have conceded 2 goals or more in 6 of their last 9 away matchse

Head to Head

PAOK and Aberdeen go head-to-head for only the second time in their history.

The Greek side claimed a dramatic 3-2 come-from-behind in their first-ever contest in Scotland a fortnight ago.

PAOK Form

After their eight-game unbeaten run ended with a 2-0 defeat at AEK Athens, PAOK bounced back with a fabulous 4-2 win at Olympiakos last time out.

Placed fourth in the Greek Super League, Răzvan Lucescu´s side have lost just two of 19 games across all competitions this season.

The Double-Headed Eagle have a superb home record this season with seven wins and two draws from nine matches.

PAOK Team News

PAOK boss Lucescu has some selection headaches for Thursday´s Conference League fixture.

Marcos Antonio, Ally Samatta and club captain Vierinha are all expected injury absentees.

The hosts must also cope without Ivan Nasberg, Joan Sastre, Filipe Soares and Andre Ricardo who are unregistered for European competition.

Aberdeen Form

Aberdeen secured an unlikely place in the Scottish League Cup final after a hard-fought 1-0 win against Hibernian last Saturday. Reduced to ten men late in the second half, the Dons scored a dramatic winner just three minutes after Jack Mackenzie´s red card.

On their travels, Barry Robson´s men have won four of their last five but remain winless in two away European matches this season.

Aberdeen Team News

Aberdeen picked up no fresh injury issues after Saturday´s League Cup semi-final win against Hibernian.

Barry Robson has just two absentees for the trip to Greece with James McGarry and Shayden Morris unavailable.

In-form forward Bojan Miovksi will continue to lead the Dons attack after his semi-final winner on Saturday.

Verdict

PAOK Salonika v Aberdeen

Aberdeen could be in for a long night at the Stadio Toumbas.

PAOK have been excellent in home matches this season, so I´m backing the Greek side to win with over 2.5 goals scored.
