Home: Iraklis 1908 FC
- Iraklis 1908 FC have won 0 of their last 5 (D2, L3) in all competitions.
- Walter Mazzarri has had plenty of time to work with Iraklis 1908 FC since taking over the bench on 13 May 2026, and he has assembled a compact 4-2-3-1 that works best in transition.
- The Gireos are 10th in the Super League 2026/2027 with just 1 point from 2 games played, so the new-boys are already in grind mode.
- Their 3 most recent outings brought a 1-3 home defeat to Volos in the Cup, a 4-0 hammering away to AEK and a 1-1 away draw with Volos in the league.
Away: PAE APS Atromitos Athens

- Atromitos are 11th in the Super League 2026/2027 with 0 points from 2 games and they will be still looking for their first league breakthrough.

Key Players
- Steven Zuber is the live wire of Kerkez's Atromitos, as he has bagged 5 of the club's 11 goals in the last 5 games across all competitions.
- Atromitos' creative spark in the Super League 2026/2027 is Thanasis Karamanis, who has 1 assist in 2 games played this season.
- Cristopher Nunez is the top-scorer for Atromitos in the Super League 2026/2027 with 1 goal in 2 games, so we will take him to score anytime at 10/3.
- Nanu is top of Iraklis' scoring chart in the Super League 2026/2027 with 1 in 2, and he is our pick to make the difference in the final third this Saturday.
Betting Insights
- Atromitos are the slight favorites for this game at 2.55, while the hosts are a little under the odds at 2.87 and the draw can be backed at 3.25.
- Under 2.5 goals at 1.61 seems a lot more suitable for what we think will be a cagey battle than a shootout, as Atromitos' superior pressing should trouble the central compactness of Iraklis' low block and force them into making mistakes.
Prediction
We are going to edge towards an away victory as Atromitos have looked much more reliable on the road in recent weeks, registering 1 win and 1 defeat from their 2 away trips.
