PAOK completed their preparations for tomorrow's away cup match against Olympiacos at "G. Karaiskakis." The training session focused on the tactical approach to the match and set pieces. Giri Pavlenka and Luka Ivanusec were absent from training, undergoing therapy. Razvan Lucescu will have to decide which young player will start in the lineup, with Anestis Mythou having the most chances, but also Dimitris Monastirlis vying for a spot, after his good performance against Atromitos and the penalty save. PAOK faces Olympiacos in a crucial knockout match to reach the semi-finals of the Cup. Lucescu's team will try to overcome the absences and present a competitive face against Olympiacos.
