AEK Favorites, Battle Between Aris and Atromitos in Super League Round 24

The 24th matchday of the Stoiximan Super League begins today with two matches: Aris - Atromitos and AEK - AEL. Aris faces Atromitos at the “Kleantis Vikelidis” stadium and needs a win to close in on fifth place and compete for a European ticket. AEK clashes with AEL Novibet at the Allwyn Arena, seeking to return to winning ways after the defeat in Volos and temporarily take the lead. Aris showed signs of improvement in the defeat at Leoforos, but needs points. Atromitos performs better away from home and wants three points to consolidate their position in 5-8. AEK, without the suspended Marko Nikolitch on the bench, wants to take the three points that will temporarily bring them to the top. AEL, on the other hand, “burns” for a result and wants to continue… damaging the Big 4 to stay in the category. The top derby between Olympiacos and PAOK dominates the 24th matchday, while the program also includes the matches Asteras Aktor - Panserraikos, Volos - OFI, Levadiakos - Panathinaikos and Olympiacos - PAOK. On Monday, the program is completed with the match Panaitolikos - Kifisia. At the top of the standings, PAOK, Olympiacos and AEK are tied with 53 points, while Panathinaikos follows with 42 points. The battle for the top is expected to be thrilling until the end of the championship.
