PAOK – Betis. Forecast and announcement for the Europa League match

On January 22, Tumba will host a match of the 7th round of the main round of the Europa League, in which PAOK will meet Betis. The match will start at 19:45 Kyiv time.

PAOK

In 2024, the team managed to regain the championship title. But she couldn’t hold it again – last spring she fell to third place in the Super League. Now the whole top three is quite clearly visible, and the representative of Thessaloniki has about the same chances of success as the old opponents, Olympiakos and AEK.

At the same time, Razvan Lucescu’s wards play in the Europa League. They started there in the summer, from the qualification, where they knocked out Wolfsberg and Rijeka consecutively, and they did not score against both in the first matches, but won in the return matches. Already in the main round, they started poorly, with a 0-0 draw against Maccabi from Tel Aviv and a loss to Celta. But then they won twice and ended with a draw, so there are still chances to enter the playoffs, but you need to win, and the opponents in January are as difficult as possible.

Betis

The club is characterized by stability under the current coach, Pellegrini. He and his wards constantly went to European Cups. Last season, the Spaniards played in the most modest of them – the League of Conferences, but they reached the final there. And at the same time, they became sixth in the Primera. Now they are keeping the level there, clearly they are not against at least repeating the result of 2024/2025.

In the Europa League, the Spaniards calmly and confidently pass the main round. Only Nottingham Forest and Genk shared points with them, ending in a draw. The rest of the matches were won, including in Lyon. So the team from Seville will definitely continue the fight for the cup in the spring. Well, except that it would be necessary to guarantee a top-8 finish in order to skip the previous round.

Statistics of personal meetings

Although the clubs often entered European Cups, they had never played each other before this Thursday.
