Recommended bet: Draw and both teams to score
PAOK and Celta Vigo meet in the Europa League play-offs on Thursday night, with the Greek side aiming to extend their superb 21-match unbeaten record at home this season.
The Toumba Stadium has proved to be a fortress for the Double-headed Eagle this season, with PAOK not losing a single game either domestically or in Europe.
However, Razvan Lucescu's side did suffer a defeat at the hands of Celta in Spain back in October and will be looking to get the better of the LaLiga side in the first leg of this play-off tie.

Team news
Georgios Giakoumakis is suspended for the home side, as is fellow midfielder Giannis Konstantelias after being sent off in the Europa League against Lyon at the end of January.
Luka Ivanusec is ruled out due to a muscle problem, while Dimitrios Pelkas, Kiril Despodov and Soualiho Meite are all doubts.
Celta, meanwhile, will be without Alvaro Nunez due to a groin problem while Carlos Dominguez, Yoel Lago and Franco Cervi are nursing knocks and are likely to miss out.
The stats

Prediction
PAOK's imperious home form proved a catalyst for the Greek side's progression to the Europa League play-offs.
Playing in front of their own fans, the Double-headed Eagle have not lost at the Toumba Stadium this season and will have belief that they can maintain that run against Celta on Thursday night.
However, the LaLiga side have already got the better of PAOK in Spain this season and will be no pushovers in the first leg.
A draw is likely as Celta have lost only once on the road since the start of December and still possess genuine quality in forward areas, despite their squad being depleted heading into this clash.
Holding their own away from home, backing both teams to score could prove a smart bet as Celta have failed to find the net on their travels just twice so far this season.
