"PAOK currently sit inside the top 24, but their position remains precarious. Two points separate them from 25th-placed Dinamo Zagreb, meaning Razvan Lucescu's men cannot afford complacency. Their record so far-two wins, three draws, and one defeat-reflects resilience, though recent European outings have been dramatic. A late equalizer denied them victory against Brann, while they salvaged a 3-3 draw at Ludogorets thanks to a stoppage-time strike on matchday six."
"Domestically, PAOK are flying. They have won five of their last six competitive matches, including a 2-0 triumph over Olympiacos in the Greek Cup quarter-finals and a commanding 3-0 league win over OFI Crete on Sunday. That result extended their unbeaten home run to 22 matches in all competitions since February last year. Defensively, they have been formidable, recording 11 clean sheets in 17 home games this season, including two in the Europa League."
PAOK occupy a precarious position in the Europa League standings, separated by two points from the next team and holding a record of two wins, three draws and one defeat. Recent European matches have featured late equalisers and a stoppage-time goal that rescued a 3-3 draw. Domestically, PAOK have won five of their last six matches and remain unbeaten at home in 22 matches across competitions, recording 11 clean sheets in 17 home games. Goalkeeper Jiri Pavlenka is sidelined, several players face late fitness tests, and Magomed Ozdoev returns from suspension. Real Betis have already qualified with 14 points and aim to secure top spot.
