Match Analysis
Panathinaikos host OFI at Olympic Stadium of Athens in Super League 1, Regular Season - 11. Kick-off is scheduled for Sunday 22 November 2026 at 15:30 UTC.
Form Guide
Panathinaikos — All Games: 8W 1D 1L from 10 Super League 1 outings this season, averaging 2.50 points per game. Last five: W L W W W. They are averaging 2.20 goals per game — a high-scoring output that makes them a genuine attacking threat in any fixture. Defensively, conceding just 0.60 per game is an exceptional defensive record — one of the tightest in the division. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches. This season is still relatively young for Panathinaikos, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Panathinaikos at Olympic Stadium of Athens this season: 6W 3D 1L from 10 home games — 2.10 PPG on home soil. They are averaging 2.20 goals per home game — a prolific scoring rate in front of their own fans. 4 home clean sheets from 10 games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground.
Looking at all fixtures this season, OFI stand at 6W 1D 3L from 10 Super League 1 matches — 1.90 PPG. Last five: D L L W W. They are scoring at 1.70 per game and conceding 1.30. 4 clean sheets in 10 outings (40%) underlines their defensive solidity. This season is still relatively young for OFI, so this record blends games from this season and last.
On the road, OFI have gone 3W 2D 5L from 10 away fixtures this term (1.10 PPG). Away from home they average 1.30 goals scored and 1.70 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context. Their away PPG of 1.10 is notably below their overall 1.90 — form away from home has been a clear weakness this season.
Panathinaikos are in the better shape of the two on current Super League 1 data — 0.60 PPG ahead (2.50 vs 1.90). That form margin is the baseline of a sensible selection even before other signals are layered in.
Head to Head
Panathinaikos hold a clear advantage in this fixture, picking up 6 wins from 10 previous encounters compared to 1 for OFI, with 3 draws in between.
The 10 previous encounters between these sides have been high-scoring affairs — 3.0 goals per contest on average. Historical precedent backs the Over 2.5 goals market. The most recent clash, on 4 Mar 2026, ended 4–1 with Panathinaikos winning.
From a betting standpoint, the H2H backs both Panathinaikos and goals. The home side's 6 wins from 10 meetings, combined with an average of 3.0 goals per game, gives the home win and Over 2.5 combination a historically grounded case.
In-Play Profile
Panathinaikos in-play tendencies (41 games, 21 at home): they score before half-time in 71% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 60% of the time; they lead at the break 49% of the time; BTTS occurs in 57% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 57% of games (home games).
OFI in-play tendencies (41 games, 21 at away): they score before half-time in 71% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; BTTS occurs in 57% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 71% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Panathinaikos 46% versus OFI 46%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Panathinaikos 49% | OFI 66%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Panathinaikos 2.40 xG and OFI 0.87 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Panathinaikos attack 1.445 / defence 0.785 | OFI attack 1.096 / defence 0.998. League average goals — home 1.664 / away 1.010. Panathinaikos carry an above-average attack strength of 1.445 — their λ of 2.40 reflects genuine attacking quality above the league norm. Panathinaikos's defence rating of 0.785 is below average — the home backline is amplifying the visitor's projected output. Data: 35 Panathinaikos games / 35 OFI games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Panathinaikos 70% | Draw 19% | OFI 11%. Fair-value odds: Panathinaikos 1.43 | Draw 5.26 | OFI 9.09. The model has a clear lean to Panathinaikos (70%) — a 59pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 63% | BTTS probability 54% | Total xG 3.27. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 63% — the 3.27 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS probability of 54% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Panathinaikos at 70% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 19% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
Poisson projects 3.27 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 63% probability — strong conviction, supported by form averaging 3.0 goals per game and H2H averaging 3.0 goals per meeting.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 54%. Form rates corroborate: Panathinaikos 50% | OFI 60% BTTS from recent games.
