It is the start of the championship but this match is too critical for the head coach of the home team. There are a lot of complaints after the two last european appearances. Aek.had a bad perfomance against Kraiova (1-1) and lost at home 3-1 from Trabzonspor. Xanthi has a new head coach and almost a new roster. The club has no cohesion and that was obvious in the last week's friendly agsinst Panathinaikos. Xanthi lost easily 3-0 and the percentage of the ball possesion for Panathinaikos was 81%!!!! Under other circumstances this would be a 10 unit stake for home team but i have to wait ....
