Panathinaikos, on the other hand, has had a busy schedule across both domestic and European competitions. In November, they defeated Panserraikos 3-0 away and edged past PAOK 2-1 at home, showcasing their attacking prowess. Their Europa League campaign has also been noteworthy, with a 1-0 win over Malmö and a 2-1 victory against Sturm Graz, though they were held to a 0-0 draw by Viktoria Plzen in Athens earlier this month. Domestically, they suffered a setback with a 3-2 loss to AEK Athens, but overall their performances have been strong, with key players like Anass Zaroury and Bakasetas making decisive contributions. The arrival of Rafa Benítez has added tactical discipline, and the squad’s depth ensures they can rotate effectively without losing quality. This combination of European experience and domestic strength makes them formidable opponents for Kavala.

Taking all these factors into account, the prediction leans heavily in favor of Panathinaikos. Kavala’s recent wins against lower-ranked Super League 2 sides demonstrate grit, but the gulf in class between them and Panathinaikos is undeniable. The Greens have shown they can adapt to different competitions and maintain momentum despite fixture congestion. With their attacking options firing and defensive structure improving under Benítez, Panathinaikos are expected to dominate proceedings. The most realistic forecast for this Greek Cup tie is a decisive away victory, with Panathinaikos likely to secure a 0:3 correct score, reflecting both their superiority and Kavala’s limitations in breaking down elite opposition.
