The Greek league is known an extremely defensive one. However, there are exceptions, teams who don't care about defense. Koroivos are practically like that. They have the worst defense of the league, on average they allow 84.4 points, and in away games 92. The way their style is was best shown in the last game when one very slow Trikala, who are also owners of the worst offense of the league, recorded over 70 shots from the floor, and mostly due to around 20 turnovers by Koroivos. So far, today's away team recorded 93 points against Kymis, they lost with -23; with Panathnaikos 96 (-31), against defensively oriented Kolossos 90 (-2), against offensively limited Apollon 92 (-26), and in the last away game against AEK 89 (-14). Rethymno on average record around 74 points, however at home they're on average of 82.5 which is no wonder because they're very home oriented. At home they're on a record of 4-0. In the last home game they recorded 89 points in regular time against Promitheas, 84 against defensive Trikala, 88 against an even more defensive Lavri. The only difference is the match against Aris, but it's known how Aris play and the fact that Rethymno remained below 70 in that match is not important for this pick. What's more important is that Koroivos are very fast, they're defensively weak, especially in away games, and it's known that Rethymno don't mind the fast pace, that they're best in the rebound in the Greek championship, and their opponents's style will enable them a large number of points from transition. I don't see a match in the championship in which Rethymno's offense could be more prominent than today, and that's why my choice here is the hosts' team over, even though other good options are handicap of the entire game and handicap of the first half.
