Aris will welcome Olympiacos to Kleanthis Vikelidis Stadium for a Greek Super League Championship playoff game on Wednesday (April 24th).

Olympiacos, meanwhile, saw off PAOK with a 2-1 home win. Quini broke the deadlock on the rebound after Daniel Podence had missed a 27th-minute penalty. The Wolves loanee made amends by turning provider for Gelson Martins just past the hour-mark. Marcos Antonio scored a consolation strike for the visitors in injury time.
The victory left Jose Luis Mendilibar's side in fourth spot, having garnered 66 points from 31 games. Aris are fifth on 48 points, having also played an extra game.
