Wolfsberg – PAOK Saloniki Prediction Europa League, Qualification, 3rd Round, Second Leg on Thursday, 08/14/25 at 7:00 p.m.
A scoreless draw is sometimes accompanied by the strong aftertaste of victory – and that was the case here. Last week, WAC managed to hold on for a valuable 0-0 draw in the heated Toumba Stadium!
In my Wolfsberg PAOK Saloniki prediction, I therefore believe that half the battle has already been won on the road to the Europa League playoffs.
After all, I find it hard to imagine that the Austrians will let themselves be beaten at home, buoyed by their recent 2-0 league win over Austria Vienna!
My Wolfsberg PAOK Saloniki tip: Both teams to score & Over 3.5 goals
Here are the reasons for my tip:
- WAC has already started its domestic league campaign!
- Wolfsberg had the significantly higher xG value (0.91) last week!
- PAOK has lost 5 of its last 6 away games!

I find “1:0 for Wolfsberg” at 9.50 very interesting. WAC just celebrated a shutout victory over Austria Vienna. The defense is stable, and a close result seems quite possible – so the tip fits.
Predicted chance of winning:

PAOK Saloniki win |

“Over 2.5 goals” at 1.98 doesn’t convince me, though. I think it’ll be a pretty cautious game that ends 0-0, 1-0, or 2-0. Wolfsberg usually plays really disciplined defense, which means not many goals.
“Double chance X2” at 1.40 is also a no-go for me. I’ve even placed a counter bet on Wolfsberg and don’t expect them to hide away. This bet doesn’t fit my assessment of the game and the team’s performance.
What you need to consider when betting on Wolfsberg vs. PAOK Saloniki
- “BTS & Over 2.5 goals” has been the result in each of PAOK’s last 5 away games.
- WAC has played its last 2 European home games without conceding a goal (1 win, 1 draw).
- PAOK’s European record against Austrian clubs is negative: 3 wins, 4 draws, 4 defeats.
