One of the most intriguing ties of the Conference League second qualifying round sees Paks and Panathinaikos lock horns in a highly-anticipated first leg. Both teams head into the clash looking to bounce back from disappointing preseason defeats. Paks suffered a heavy 4-1 loss to Austria Vienna in their final warm-up game, but the Hungarian side have generally been difficult to beat at home, averaging 1.8 goals per game and conceding only once per match across their last five home outings. They will be eager to put on a much better display in front of their fans as they look to take an advantage into the return leg in Athens.
Panathinaikos also have plenty to prove after falling to a 4-1 defeat against Rapid Vienna in preseason. Despite that setback, the Greek giants possess the greater European pedigree and have strengthened their squad with the arrival of striker Elmin Rastoder, who scored an impressive 15 league goals for Thun last season. The visitors are expected to rely on his finishing ability as they seek a positive result away from home. While both sides have shown inconsistency in recent months, Panathinaikos' superior individual quality could make the difference in what promises to be a closely contested encounter.
The Greek side have more experience and greater quality across the pitch despite their mixed preseason results. Therefore, we are tempted to place our bets on Away Win, alongside PAO to Win to Nil and Under 2.5 goals.
This Europa Conference League match will be played on Thursday 23 July 2026 at 19:00.
