On Thursday, starting at 20:00, the PAOK Thessaloniki – MOL Vidi will be played in the 3rd round of the Europa League group stage, 2018-2019.
The two bands have not met in European competitions so far.
The group coached by Razvan Lucescu occupies the second position in the group L ranking, with 3 points. PAOK lost 0-1 on his own against the London-based Chelsea, then defeated clearly in Belarus 4-1 with BATE Borisov. Internally, the Greeks have won all the 7 rounds played so far, but have only 19 points in the standings, due to the 2 points penalty received last season.
The Hungarian team lost both disputes from the Europa League, 0-2 on their own with BATE Borisov and 0-1 in London with Chelsea. In the Hungarian championship, MOL Vidi occupies only the third position, 6 points away from leader Ferencvaros, who has a more played match.
For the Hungarians, it’s about the last chance to avoid the last position, but the program does not help them at all. Lucescu has built a remarkable band at PAOK, and MOL Vidi will have few opportunities. We believe that PAOK will win the game, but without registering too many times.
PREDICTION: Over 2.5 goals @ 1.80
