Panionios v Olympiacos Volou

Verdict: Panionios will be looking for another mid table finish this season if not better and what better way to start the season with a win at their home ground. The pitch might have a few dangerous pot holes after their own fans decided to trash Nea Smyrni Stadium as to stop AEK using the ground for their Europa tie against Dundee Utd.
Nevertheless it is a great opportunity for an early win in front of their fans against another recently promoted team, Olympiakos Volou.
Volou will no doubt park the bus in front of their own goals but might find it difficult to stop the attacks of Sito Riera and experienced striker Balaban. They will surely be cheering on their 12th man, the stadium seats thrown in by the Panionios supporters protest mid week, to help out covering any holes in their defence.

Pick: Panionios -1AH @2.13 (188bet, 8 units)
Panionios 0 - 1 Olympiacos Volou

Kerkyra v AEK

Verdict: AEK might be tired from their recent Europa match against Dundee Utd. and could be facing newly promoted Kerkyra away from home but should still have plenty in the tank to see off the first round of the Super Liga with a win.
The Kerkyra defence will struggle to contain the likes of Djebbour, Blanco, Scocco and Lyberopoulo up front while also having to deal with the fast paced brazilian duo of Leonardo and Eder.
Papa Bouba Diop and Kafes will surely control the midfield play even over veteran ex-Olympiakos mid Stoltidis who will be lining up for his debut match in Kerkyra colours. Anything less then a win for AEK and Dusko should head for the hills before the final whistle if he doesn't want a repeat beating by his own fans.

Pick: AEK -1AH @2.01 (188bet, 8 units)
Kerkyra 2 - 1 AEK
