Panathinaikos welcome Viktoria Plzen to Athens in a matchup that promises intensity and goals. Therefore, our prediction leans toward a 2-1 home win. The Greens have been strong at home, winning 4 of their last 5 in Athens and averaging 2.8 goals per home match, despite missing Kyriakopoulos, Kyriopoulos, Pellistri, and Sanches. Rafa Benitez, however, still has enough high-profile options to maintain control in possession and threaten through multiple attacking channels. Their defensive numbers at home—0.69 xGA—suggest they remain difficult to break down.
Plzen head into the match after a disappointing 3-0 weekend defeat to Slovacko, a match where the absences of Havel, Kopic, Paluska, and Panos were clearly felt. Still, their away form is impressive: four wins and one draw in their last five and 2.0 goals scored per away game. Their expected goals output on the road (1.70) shows they can create chances even when key players are missing.
As both sides average above 2.5 goals per match in all competitions, Over 2.5 goals is our main tip for this Europa League matchup, with additional value on Home Win and BTTS.
This Europa League match will be played on Thursday 11 December 2025 at 20:00.
