Fenerbahçe and PAOK will meet in Toumba Stadium after their defeats from Champions League Qualification Round. Between two teams, i think, PAOK deserved to receive a bye to next round but Fenerbahçe football team made disappointed the club and the supporters. Whereas PAOK eleminate to Ajax without any losing but away goal rules.
Before the beginning of Greek League, PAOK showed us a good performance specially against Ajax. I think that, major clubs of Greece, as Olympiakos and PAO are worried and unconfortable because of PAOK's performance. A hell is waiting for Fenerbahçe in Toumba Stadium with fanatic fans and manager Pavlos Dermitzakis.
Fenerbahçe's matches which between Young Boys were tragedy for Turkish Fans. Actually, they took an advantage score from Switzerland, but in Şükrü Saraçoğlu Stadium they lost with 0-1. This scores throw them to Toumba hell in Greece. After all, we have to say that, Feenerbahçe is better team than PAOk for sure but with the factors outside of football, their job will not be easy in Greece.

The weather is around 32 degree in the afternoon in Selanik. I think that, referee will break the match time to time for water need. Also stadium will effect on the footballers as a hell. The referee of the stressful match is
Manuel Grafe.
It is the first meeting of the teams.
PAOK is close to 3 points. The only reason of that, is supporters will be effective on Fenerbahçe's footballers in a negative way. Even Fenerbahçe is a better team then PAOK, this situation is a quastion sign in my mind. I am not sure, how they will resist this pressure. If we take a look to match that between PAOK and Ajax, it is easy to see that PAOK's defenders are not quality. Then Fenerbahçe can find a goal or goals easily. So Over 2.5 goals is desirable for tonight.
The highest odd for
over 2.5 goals is @
