Panathinaikos vs Marseille: Home field advantage
Panathinaikos can hardly be compared with the prestigious Ligue 1 team Marseille. Therefore, most fans are inclined to represent the Greek league Panathinaikos who will be the one to stop in the confrontation series in the third qualifying round of the European Cup.
Of course, that is just a theoretical match prediction and if you look at the actual performance, especially before the first leg, it is the bottom team Panathinaikos who is the bright name to win. Remember, they have just had 2 impressive matches, winning 1 and drawing 1 against formidable opponent Dnipro-1 of Ukraine in the second qualifying round.
Across the field, Marseille entered the first leg with many worries when away from home. Notably, the team of the port city of Marseille is showing a weak face when losing to 5/7 recent matches in all participating fronts. In the European Cup, Marseille lost 18 of the last 21 matches and made fans worry.
