OFI host PAOK in the Greece Super League 1. Both sides have made decent starts to the season, with PAOK just ahead of OFI in the table so far.
The two clubs have met plenty of times down the years, and PAOK have usually come out on top, but their more recent meetings have been much closer affairs. That shift is worth digging into before we get to this one.

OFI's equivalent run reads 10 wins, 2 draws and 8 losses from 20, with 32 scored and 27 conceded. More losses than PAOK in that stretch, and fewer draws, which suggests OFI's results have swung a bit more from game to game.
PAOK's results look a touch more settled over recent weeks, even allowing for the mixed competitions in the sample.
Comparative Team Statistics: OFI vs PAOK

A history PAOK usually win, but not lately
Across the head-to-head record stretching back to 2019, PAOK have won the majority of meetings, including some big away days like a 5-0 and a 4-0. On paper, that's a long run of dominance.

But the last three meetings tell a different story. A cup tie in September finished 0-0, and back in April OFI actually won 3-2 away at PAOK in the cup. The January league meeting did go PAOK's way, 3-0, so it's mixed rather than one-sided lately.
The wider history favours PAOK heavily, but the most recent meetings have been far tighter than that record suggests.
Where they stand after five games
PAOK sit second with 12 points from five matches, having won four and lost just one, scoring 12 and conceding only five. OFI are fourth on 10 points, with three wins, a draw and a defeat, and a goal record of 8 for and 4 against.
| № | Team | Played | Win | Draw | Loss | GF/GA | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Panathinaikos | 5 | 5 | 0 | 0 | 12/2 | 15 |
| 2 | PAOK | 5 | 4 | 0 | 1 | 12/5 | 12 |
| 3 | AEK Athens FC | 5 | 3 | 2 | 0 | 13/3 | 11 |
| 4 | OFI | 5 | 3 | 1 | 1 | 8/4 | 10 |
| 5 | Olympiakos Piraeus | 5 | 3 | 1 | 1 | 4/2 | 10 |
It's a gap of two points and one place, not a gulf. OFI's defensive numbers are actually tidy too, so this isn't a case of one team miles ahead of the other in the early table.
Two points separate them early on, so the table alone doesn't point to an obvious gap in class.

Key men and a card to watch
For PAOK, Pelkas has three goals in five appearances, and the goals are spread around too, with Shoretire, Živković and Ndiaye all chipping in twice in limited matches. That's a decent spread of attacking threat rather than reliance on one man. Elustondo has picked up a red card in just four matches, which is worth keeping an eye on from a discipline standpoint.
OFI's main scoring threat has been Kodro, with two goals in four games, while Athanasiou has provided two assists. Bouchalakis has two yellow cards already in five matches, so another booking would put him on thin ice.
Neither side's discipline record is a major concern yet, but it's a detail worth tracking as the season goes on.

This one looks genuinely competitive. PAOK have the better league position and a slightly steadier recent run, but OFI's defensive numbers are solid and the last few meetings between these two have been far from one-sided.
With no market available to assess, we're not putting forward a selection for this fixture. It's one to keep watching as team news and market prices firm up closer to kickoff.
