Ksanthi-Paniwnios home win +130 Pinnacle.
This is not that great because Ksanthi is a weaker team this year than the previous ones when they have been a real threat to everyone (as much as this can hold in Greece). But paniwnios is also sooooo much weaker than last year. They were -220 favs vs Paniliakos and up 2-0 they conceded two at home. Eventually won 2-0. Ksanthi I thought would have a much worse defense this year without Vallas (he signed for Olimpiakos) but they only lost 1-0 away to Panathinaikos. This is all to say that ok, although Ksanthi took a better result than predicted and Paniwnios probably a worse one, I still acknowledge Ksanthi are not that good, as they have been in the past. Still I don't know whether they will like to start getting behind in points and having to chase others. Anyway, if you cannot see why on earth am I not passing on a game where I have no strong opinion, you are right.I must get to the point: Point is last year Paniwnios were buying their way to Uefa Cup qualification. In that process they bought the match in Ksanthi,which otherwise didn't have the weapons to win. The fact that that match was a fix is almost clear to me,what is not clear is whether they will give the points this year (as part of last year's deal). However this is customary in Greece and Italy and there is a chance they will do it. I am not thrilled with the team of Ksanthi themselves, but wouldn't make them much more than +130 even without the fix scenario. Actually,let us not forget: Paniwnios should be even worse compared to last year than Ksanthi will be.
So 1 unit Ksanthi -.5 Pinnacle.
