PAOK to Win and Over 2.5 Goals
Greek giants PAOK slipped to a shock 2-1 first-leg reverse in Dublin last week, though we’re backing Răzvan Lucescu’s troops to overturn the deficit on home soil on Thursday. PAOK mustered a mammoth 18 attempts in the Irish capital seven days ago and a similar haul of chances should produce more goals in Greece. In addition, Bohemians have won only three of their last ten away fixtures and The Gypsies’ habit of coming unstuck on the road could land them in trouble again this week.
PAOK -1 Goal
PAOK created more than enough opportunities to win in Dublin last week and in truth, their eventual defeat was one of the more surprising Europa Conference League first-leg results across the continent. With a place in the Playoff Stage of the competition on offer and a higher-calibre of player in their ranks than their Irish opponents, we’re tipping PAOK’s superior class to shine through on Thursday and a comfortable victory could be forthcoming.
Nelson Oliveira to Score Anytime
Portuguese hot shot Nelson Oliveira joined PAOK from AEK Athens in the summer and the striker made an immediate impact in his first appearance for his new employers. The 30-year-old nabbed a potentially crucial consolation goal against Bohemians in Dublin and the 17-times capped international has the quality to punish the same defence on Thursday.
PAOK vs Bohemians: Match Preview
PAOK
PAOK’s Romanian manager Răzvan Lucescu has only been in the hotseat since May and his first competitive fixture in charge against Bohemians didn’t exactly go to plan last week. A double-legged defeat to the Irish outfit would be hugely embarrassing for Lucescu, who will be determined to make a good first impression in front of the supporters at the Stadio Toumbas on Thursday.
Bohemians
Bohemians are one of a number of Premier Division teams making a real splash on the continent this summer and their 2-1 victory over PAOK last week was heralded as a significant moment for Irish football. The Gypsies have goal-scoring potential in several areas, though first-leg two-goal hero Alistair Coote and centre-forward Georgie Kelly are two players to watch out for in particular.
