AEK suffered a huge defeat in Athens from Trabzonspor 1-3, during their first leg match for Europa League’s play offs.


The result leaves very few hopes, if none at all, for the Greek team to achieve the qualification to the group stage at next week’s second game.

Apollon Limassol also was defeated 3-0 in the Netherlands from PSV Eindhoven. The Limassol team will have a herculean task in the second leg match in order to qualify.

PAOK is the team, which despite the loss 1-0 in Bratislava, has more chances of beating Slovan in the “explosive” atmosphere that the fans will create in Salonica.
