PAOK: Thoughts on 3-5-2 ahead of Olympiacos match

Alessio Lisi is considering changing PAOK's tactical formation ahead of the big derby against Olympiacos at "G. Karaiskakis".

The Italian coach is thinking of lining up the "Double-headed Eagle of the North" with a 3-5-2 formation, setting aside the 4-4-2 he used in previous matches. His goal is to strengthen the team's defensive function, gain more players in the midfield, and limit the development of the "red-and-whites".

Lisi's final decisions

The use of three central defenders is expected to provide greater security at the back, while the two wing-backs will play a significant role in both defense and offensive development.

Lisi has not yet decided on the players who will make up the starting eleven. PAOK's preparation has entered its final stage, and the last training sessions will determine both the formation and the choices of the Italian coach.

At the same time, the technical staff is awaiting the final picture regarding the availability of the players, before drawing up the final plan for the demanding match in Faliro.
