OFI (home)
- OFI are unbeaten in 3 home games in the Super League 2026/2027 (W2, D1).
- OFI have won one, drawn one and lost three of their last five games.
PAOK (away)
Firstly, there is a significant difference in form and momentum heading into this Sunday's game with the Thessaloniki side having won four of their last five and fresh from a 2-1 home win over Iraklis 1908 FC, while OFI come into this clash in mixed form and on a three-game losing run, following defeats away at AEK Athens, Stade Rennes and Kalamata.
Head-to-Head
- Alas, the head-to-head record between these two sides is almost even (W2, D2, L1 in last 5) and PAOK are winless in their last away game against OFI Crete, so we must look for other reasons to back the visitors.
- However, the hosts do have a good record against PAOK in recent seasons and should also be given credit for their current form.
Key Players
- Alessio Lisci has PAOK playing a fluid, high-tempo 4-2-3-1 system that presses high up the field and looks to dominate possession, while Christos Kontis has OFI set up to be compact, disciplined and dangerous on the break.
- OFI have their main man, Kenan Kodro, who has scored two goals in four appearances in the Super League 2026/2027, while Thiago Nuss has also been hot of late with three of OFI's last nine goals.
- PAOK's main man is Dimitrios Pelkas (3 goals, 5 games) and Cherif Ndiaye has hit two of their last five goals.
Betting Insights
- OFI FC welcome FC PAOK Thessaloniki to Pankritio Stadium in Greece for a game that sees the visitors installed as favourites by the bookies at 1.71, with the hosts listed at 4.47 and the draw 3.82.
- In conclusion, PAOK are the likelier winners, but the gap in the odds is too great for us to take and with OFI's home advantage, we're going to side with the home team.
- However, the recent head-to-head suggests a tight contest and the form of both sides in their respective home or away games this season, suggest that this game could be a tough, scrappy affair, so we're also having Both Teams To Score: Yes and Under 2.5 Goals in the correct score market.
Prediction
- OFI (7th, 10pts from 7) and PAOK (3rd, 15pts from 7) are in the same division this season, so there is little to go on in the standings, but the recent results are telling and PAOK should win this game.
- Despite PAOK being the likelier winners on form and momentum, we're siding with OFI at home given their recent record against PAOK and the tight head-to-head, and we expect a close, low-scoring affair with Both Teams To Score and Under 2.5 Goals as sensible markets.
