Olympiacos was the better side overall in the match against PAOK, controlling possession and creating several chances. However, the match ended in a goalless draw at the G. Karaiskakis, leaving both teams with a point in the standings.

Player Updates

As Olympiacos prepares for its upcoming EuroLeague games, the team has a record of 19-10 in the 2025-26 EuroLeague Regular Season. Notably, Sasha Vezenkov and Monte Morris have been cleared to travel with the team for these crucial matches.

However, there are concerns regarding the availability of other key players. Thomas Walkup is doubtful to make the trip, as head coach Giorgos Bartzokas stated, “Walkup is a difficult case; I don’t think he’ll make the trip.” Additionally, Keenan Evans and Moustapha Fall are both recovering from surgeries, with Evans having undergone left Achilles surgery and Fall recovering from left knee surgery.

Coach Giorgos Bartzokas expressed optimism about the players who will be available, saying, “Vezenkov and Morris will definitely follow [with the team], as well as the others who were missing today because they weren’t eligible to play.” This statement highlights the team’s focus on maximizing its roster for the upcoming challenges.

Looking Ahead

Details remain unconfirmed regarding the status of Thomas Walkup and the availability of other players for the EuroLeague games until after practice. The team will need to navigate these uncertainties carefully as they aim to maintain their competitive edge in the EuroLeague.
