History

Social rivalry

The rivalry between these two Thessalonian clubs can be traced back to the interwar period, where a rivalry began between upper class local Greeks (Αris fans) and Greek refugees (PAOK fans). These refugees were mostly working class migrants from Asia Minor and Constantinople. They settled in the region of Macedonia after the population exchange between Greece and Turkey in 1923. The antagonism between those social groups has been expressed in many ways and one of them was football.

Football rivalry

Aris were founded in 1914 and PAOK in 1926. On 12 June 1927, the first derby of Thessaloniki took place, ending with a 2–1 PAOK victory. [1] Up to 1959, the two teams were fighting for the Macedonia Football Clubs Association (EPSM) local championship title and they also met some times in the final stage of the Panhellenic Championship. In 1959, the Alpha Ethniki - the precursor of the current Super League - was set up as a national round-robin tournament. Aris vs PAOK rivalry has continued to grow more and more heated over the years as the two clubs battle for supremacy in Northern Greece. [2] [3] [4] [5]

The very first match between the two teams took place in Leoforos Alexandras Stadium in Athens during the final phase of the 1930–31 Panhellenic Championship. The rivalry used to remain on-pitch for several years. However, since the Greek Cup Final of 2017 there is an ongoing, intense and overall exaggeration of the rivalry, further boosted after the championship conquered by AEK in 2018, when PAOK were deducted 3 points by court decision and AEK were given 3 points, which adjudged the title holder.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Gate 4</span> Supporters group of PAOK

Gate 4 is the most popular organized supporters group of the Greek multi-sports club PAOK. The group has played an important role in the club's course over the years affecting the club's decisions. They mostly wear black and white symbols and clothes, which are the colors of the club.

The 2020–21 Greek Football Cup was the 79th edition of the Greek Football Cup. It took place with the participation of the 14 clubs from the Super League 1, as there was no competitive action in the lower divisions until early January due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The HFF decided that the Cup would be held with the participation of teams only from the top-flight Super League, which was normally in progress. The winner of the Cup qualified for the next season's Europa Conference League third qualifying round.

The 2003 Greek Cup final was the 59th final of the Greek Cup. The match took place on 17 May 2003, at Toumba Stadium. The contesting teams were PAOK and Aris. It was Aris' sixth Greek Cup final in their 89-year history and PAOK's sixteenth Greek Cup final in their 77 years of existence. During the postgame press conference, Aris manager Giorgos Foiros made a complaint that the final should have been a two-legged tie because PAOK had the advantage of playing on home ground. Kaftanzoglio Stadium, a neutral ground and Thessaloniki's largest stadium was under renovation for the 2004 Summer Olympic games. The HFF's regulation for that season's Cup stated that if the final was to be held at Thessaloniki, it would be hosted at the second largest stadium of the city which was Toumba. About a week before the game, Aris demanded from the federation either the final to be played at Kalamaria Stadium or Makedonikos Stadium which were both neutral grounds or to be held a draw between Toumba Stadium and Kleanthis Vikelidis Stadium, but both requests were denied due to the tournament's regulation. PAOK manager, Angelos Anastasiadis became the only one in club's history to win the Cup both as a player, in 1974 and manager.

The 2022–23 Greek Football Cup, also named Novibet Greek Cup for sponsorship reasons, was the 81st edition of the Greek Football Cup. The winner of the Cup will qualify for the next season's Europa League third qualifying round.
