As usual in the aftermath of a game, those who started the encounter in Russia did special recuperation work in the gym under the guidance of Paolo Artico.

The second group engaged in ball circulation drills, games in reduced space practicing the basics of football and a half-pitch training match. Dimitris Konstantinidis trained normally, while Dimitar Berbatov followed most of the session, but in lower intensity.

Jairo also trained on his own and is expected to join his teammates on Saturday. Giannis Mystakidis has been working in more intense tempo in the last stretch of his recovery procedure, while Μiguel Vítor, Marin Leovac and Εrgys Kace remained in the gym for stationary bike and physiotherapy.
