The Hellenic Football Federation conducted the draw of the fixtures for the upcoming schedule earlier today in Thessaloníki. The last three years saw a derby on the first matchday, and the trend continued this year as AEK and Panathinaikos are scheduled to meet in the opening weekend of the Greek top flight.

Italy ‘rob’ Greece of win
A last minute penalty robbed Greece’s U-19 of a full three points on opening day of the 2008 U-19 Championships in the Czech Republic.

Greek U-19 to erase EURO Disappointment
The Greek U-19 team know that history cannot be erased, but they will take a stab at tonight when they kick off their UEFA U-19 Championships.

Greece’s title defense got off to a bad start last night in Salzburg. Greece opened their EURO 2008 campaign against Scandinavian side, Sweden. It appeared that Greece were going to rely on their tactics of 2004 to help them pick up three points; but this time their tactics weren’t a success.
The game opened up with [...]
Greece set for First Hurdle
Greece will kickoff its title defense with their opening Group D match against Sweden. Despite returning as defending champions, the Greeks are ranked heavy outsiders to repeat their feat from 2004. The odds go even further, as Sweden are the heavy favorites to open up their EURO 2008 campaign with a win over Greece.
Greece returns [...]
Greece Maintain Ranking Position
Despite the recent poor performances by Greece, Greece’s slump was not enough to see the Greeks slip in the FIFA rankings. With a 8th place ranking - an all-time high - the Greeks are ahead of some the world’s elite, and touching distance of World Cup finalists, France.
With a 63 point dip, the Greeks [...]
Greece look to Rebound
The defending champions will look for the form which saw them finish atop of Europe during the qualifying round, when they face off against Sweden in Salzburg on Tuesday. Recent Pre-EURO 2008 tests have not gone accordingly, as a 3-2 loss to Hungary in Budapest, and a scoreless draw with Armenia wrapped up the Greeks [...]
