As debates rage on about the eligibility of Israeli sides in UEFA competitions, Maccabi Tel Aviv will be traveling to Greece to take on PAOK Thessaloniki. The two will face off in the opening round of the Europa League. Let’s have a look at the prediction for this match.
PAOK started off their Europa League journey in the third qualifying round. It has been a fair run for them in the season, but they come into this one winless in the last two outings.
After their 4-1 loss to Levadiakos in the Greek Cup, PAOK drew 0-0 with Panetolikos. They’ll be hoping a return to European action lifts them again, with their last action there having been a 5-0 demolition of Rijeka.
When these sides last met in 2004, Maccabi won both legs in the Champions League, with the team awarded one of them after PAOK fielded an ineligible player. The Israelis will be hoping for another win here, and a four-match winning run tallies with the ambition.
They are coming off a 2-1 win over Hapoel Jerusalem. Maccabi showed good battling attributes in the game to rise from a goal down, with Mohamed Camara scoring the winner deep in stoppage time.
Their latest game in Europe, however, ended in a 1-0 defeat away to Dynamo Kyiv. The visitors have won eight times in the last 11 matches. The three instances where they failed to win were all in European matches.
