ATHENS (Reuters) - Former Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras's Syriza party would get 25.3 percent of the vote in a Sept. 20 snap election, versus 23.2 percent for the conservative New Democracy party, an opinion poll by company Marc for Alpha TV showed on Friday.

Popular Unity, a party formed last week by disaffected Syriza rebels who oppose the country's latest 86 billion euro bailout, was backed by 3.8 percent of those polled.
