Syriza leader Alexei Tsipras, 37...has gone from obscurity...to worldwide prominence...in less than 2 months.
Polls have the far left leader's party running neck and neck...with the pro-eurozone party....for first place in Sunday's important and much watched election.
But...Syriza will still not have enough votes to control the parliament...without a coalition.
Yet...some economists predict chaos if Syriza comes in first.
