The super-compressed schedule of Panathinaikos until the end of 2024 in all three competitions and the opportunity that is there for the clover.
The third “window” of the national teams, did not change much for Panathinaikos, in terms of how Rui Vitoria could work in this fortnight break, in the sense that he did not have for a fortnight and put ten internationals of, who in any case are in the majority key members of the eleven or members of the basic rotation.
Beyond the necessary “breathers”, the Portuguese coach will have a minimum of time with the whole team at his disposal, to be able to pass many more things and principles into their game, in terms of development and execution patterns, the balance in the defensive transition and to give her an “identity” on the field day by day.
But this is something that the 54-year-old coach has to “live with”, having to manage until the Christmas holidays and a terribly compressed schedule with 9 matches in 29 days, starting from Sunday (24/11, 17: 00) very important game with Panaitolikos in Agrinio for the 12th matchday of the Stoiximan Super League.
The next month in all three competitions, with matches every -3 or 4 days- will largely judge half (and more) of the clover year and certainly by the next holiday break, he will know much more clearly now that… marches towards its domestic and European goals.
In this period of 29 days, Panathinaikos has a total of 4 trips, 3 of which will be gathered in… the devil’s week from December 8 to 15, where they will successively go to Tripoli (8/12, Asteras, 14th matchday Stoiximan Super League), Shrewsbury (12/12, The New Saints, 5th matchday League Phase Conference League) and Livadeia (15/12, Levadeiakos, 15th matchday).
Decisive games everywhere and with everyone
Before this particular, difficult week of the series of away games, the greens will have played after Agrinio, their matches against Helsinki (28/11, 19:45) in the most decisive match of the League Phase of the Conference League (matchday 4) , but also the two “sticky” games with Atromitos. First at OAKA on December 1st for the 13th (and last of the first round) matchday of the League and three days later in Peristeri (4/12) in the first match for the “16” of the Greek Cup.
Four days after the mission to Livadia, Panathinaikos will welcome the Belarusian Dinamo Minsk to the OAKA (12/19), hoping to get the results it needs earlier from the games against Helsinki and The New Saints, in order to be able to seal its presence in the Conference League knockouts (the extra round of places 9 to 24) and will close its program for 2024, with the home game against Kallithea on the evening of December 22.
Even his fate in his own… feet
The limited time from match to match increases the degree of difficulty for the shamrock. On the other hand, given that he has managed, despite his so many unsuccessful results in the championship and the League Phase of the Conference League, to be only -2 from the top of the Greek League and to still keep his luck in the… his feet in Europe, offer him an opportunity to “come back” at all levels.
What’s more, from the moment when in Greece his direct competitors continue to lose points everywhere and have more games ahead of them until the final of the first round to… neutralize each other.
And if Rui Vitoria manages to improve the image of the greens and brings stability and above all a football identity to the “clover”, the opportunity will be there for Panathinaikos…
