The squad for the PAOK vs. AEK derby match
The Super League continues and an enthralling title race is unfolding. Matches like the one coming up against AEK are not just for playing, but winning. The first derby of 2020 at the the Toumba is upon us and PAOK is eager to return to winning ways.
Abel Ferreira and his payers have been hard at work, since the win over OFI in the cup, preparing the tactical approach for this demanding game coming up against AEK.
The Portuguese technician watched on during the last training session at the Toumba and saw Jose Crespo and Mauricio both train normally and pass a fitness test, meaning both players are available again. In contrast, Omar El Kaddouri is still some way away from a return to full fitness and will not be available.
The training session included a heavy emphasis on tactics and set-piece drills. After the session at the Toumba, the Porguguese announced his 19-man squad for the match against AEK, which is the following:
Paschalakis, Zivkovic, Matos , Rodrigo, Varela, Crespo, Ingason, Giannoulis, Vierinha, Douglas, Mauricio, Misic, Esiti, Pelkas , Biseswar, Lamprou, Limnios, Swiderski, Akpom.
