Tuesday (2/8) was the draw day for the Greek teams taking part in the qualifiers of the European competitions. Specifically, the starting signal for the Europa League playoffs was given with Olympiakos.

If the red-whites manage to overcome the obstacle of Slovan Bratislava, they will face the loser of the pair Maccabi Haifa – Apollon Limassol.

In short, the Red-Whites could once again face champions Israel, from whom they were eliminated in the 2nd qualifying round of the Champions League, a possibility Sportish had been writing about since Monday.

The first leg will be played on August 18 with Piraeus visiting and the second leg a week later on August 25 in Karaiskakis.

If Olympiacos are eliminated by Slovan, they will face the winner of the duo Zrinski (Bosnia) – Tobol (Kazakhstan) in the Conference League playoffs. The first game (18.8.) takes place outside the headquarters of the red and white.

The possible opponents of Panathinaikos and Aris

If Panathinaikos manages to overcome the obstacle of Slavia Prague in the 3rd qualifying round of the Conference League, they will face the winner of the pair Spartak Trnava (Slovakia) – Rakov (Poland).

The first leg for the Greens (18 August) is to be played away, the second leg on the 25th of the same month in Leoforo.

Aris also learned of a possible opponent. Especially the yellow ones when they qualify against Maccabi Tel Aviv, they meet a difficult opponent, Nice.
