Overview

• PAOK visit Celta in Vigo after opening their European campaign with a 0-0 home draw against Maccabi Tel Aviv.
• Razvan Lucescu rejected labeling Celta as a team in crisis and praised their ball retention and the intensity of LaLiga.
• He highlighted Celta’s seasoned core—Marcos Alonso, Borja Iglesias, Jutglà and Iago Aspas—and noted the addition of Inter-trained keeper Ionut Radu.
• PAOK are unbeaten in Greece with three wins and two draws, sitting third and two points behind Olympiacos and AEK.
• Coverage depicts PAOK under Lucescu as pragmatic and fast, typically using a lone striker behind a three-man line with Pavlenka, Meïté, Ozdoev and Giakoumakis central to the setup.
