Match preview

Hradec Králové host Panathinaikos following an eventful 2-2 draw in their first-leg encounter in Greece on August 20. The Czech side demonstrated resilience away from home to secure a level scoreline, but they have managed just one victory in their last five fixtures across all competitions (one win, two draws, two losses), scoring four goals while conceding five.

Panathinaikos travel to the Czech Republic boasting an unbeaten European record this season, recording two wins and three draws across five matches with nine goals scored and seven conceded. Notably, the Greek side has won both of their away European ties so far, averaging two goals scored and one conceded on the road.

With both sides showing defensive vulnerabilities—neither team having kept a clean sheet in this competition—Panathinaikos' proven efficiency in away ties and consistent attacking output give them the slight upper hand to avoid defeat.
