Has Anyone Watched a Game in Opap Arena?

[redsoxdw_]

I am a huge sports fan but have never watched a football game at Opap Arena. I am trying to figure out if I should take in a game next time I am in Greece. From what I understand, the Arena is in the Athens area? Here's the link:

Any recommendations you have would be great. In particular, I see from the website that there is a restaurant there. Is it any good, or should I plan to eat somewhere else?

I haven't watched a game here, either. Is this it? It's a little difficult to find information about it:

Athens team Panathinaikos football plays in Leoforos Stadium in Athens. Panathinakos basketball plays in OACA indoor arena, which was used for gymnastics in the 2004 Olympics. I was at the arena for the Olympics but not for a bball game. I’m more of an Olympiacos fan anyway.

Looks like it's here: Φωκών 11, Νέα Φιλαδέλφεια Αττικής 143 41

It doesn't look like it's finished yet. And from the website in your link:

The center of Sports, Culture & Memory, OPAP ARENA has already begun to take shape, in order to become a reality very soon and to host the dream of million AEK supporters.

Well, this explains why I couldn't really find anything about it! Thank you! I will watch out for when it is finally open.

I went last season and loved it. The atmosphere was loud but fun, views were great from most seats, and getting there by metro was easy. I’d go again for sure.

Crowd energy at Opap Arena feels pretty intense, and even if you’re not rooting for a specific team, the atmosphere kind of pulls you in. I liked checking match stats on https://rubiscore.com/ before heading out so I knew who was in form. If you go, getting there a bit early helps because the area around the stadium gets busy, but once you’re inside it’s a smooth, fun experience.
