Kifisias vs AEK Athens Prediction: Another tricky challenge for AEK

In the 10th round of the Greece Super League, we have a match between Kifisias and AEK Athens, a small city derby in Athens. According to the odds, AEK are big favorites in this match, but I think that Kifisias are very underrated, in fact, they are still undefeated at home this season. AEK are constantly under pressure from other title contenders as this season in Greece Super League 4 teams are in a close race to the top. AEK will have to find a way to break Kifisias’ defense and get all 3 points today.

Kifisias are having defensive approach in almost every match they play and it’s sure that against strong opponents as AEK their main goal will be to stop the opponent’s attacks. They are in the lower part of the table in 10th place with 7 points from 9 matches, a win, 4 draws, and 4 defeats with a goal difference of 10:18. They are winless in their last 5 matches playing a draw 3 times and twice they were defeated. However, at home, they are undefeated in 4 matches, 3 draws, and a win and it’s something that is giving hope to their fans that they can get at least a point against a great city rival. In this match, they will be without Capan and Mateus Criciuma, two important players who were sent off in the last round.

The champions AEK are having a really hard task to defend the title. This season the competition seems more aggressive and the title race has been on fire since the start of the league. However, AEK are there near the top of the table with 20 points, 6 wins, 2 draws and a defeat. They have 2 points less than the leader Panathinaikos. In the last round, they won in the great derby against PAOK 2:0. In the last 5 matches they have only one defeat against Marseille in the Europa League, 3 wins and a draw. In the league, they have only one defeat so far, against OFI Crete in an also tricky away match.

AEK are favorites in this city derby against Kifisias, but they will have to push a little harder to get the job done. Kifisias will have some changes in the lineup which will disrupt the manager’s concept but they will have to deal with it and give everything they have to take at least a point. I think we will see goals from both teams in this match, but AEK will be victorious at the end, and will take all 3 points which are of greater importance for them at the moment.
