Do they put you on the next available plane, even if according to the Lufthansa website it's currently sold out?
They obviously can't put you on a flight with no seat but 'next available' are the keywords. Since you are booked on the first flight of the day there will be a few other direct and indirect flights including codeshare flights later in the day. Hopefully they will put you on one of those flights to ATH.
