Panathinaikos has extended its strong start to the Greek football season under coach Jakob Nielsen (also referred to as Jakob Nistrup or Jakob Nederrup). After an initial period of dominance, the team has remained undefeated through its first 13 official matches of the season, matching a club record from the 2001-02 season under Giannis Kyrastas.

This unbeaten streak includes ten victories and notable away wins in European competitions against CSKA 1948 and Hradec Králové. Following a 1-0 victory over Kalamata secured by a goal from Andreas Tettey, Nielsen remarked that the league is a ‘marathon, not a sprint’ due to the inherent difficulties of the Greek championship.

Danish media have attributed the team’s success to Nielsen’s tactical leadership and significant financial investment in new transfers by club management, totaling approximately 50 million euros. The club is currently preparing for a Conference League fixture against the Danish side Nordsjaelland, a matchup Nielsen believes he is well-prepared for due to his familiarity with the opponent.
