Panathinaikos jumped back up to the second spot of the Super League after its home win over Xanthi on Saturday, as PAOK slumped to third due to its draw at home with PAS Giannina on Sunday. Champion Olympiakos also drew, but away from home, with Fulham loan Costas Mitroglou returning to action with a goal.
