Match Analysis
PAOK host OFI at Toumba Stadium in Super League 1, Regular Season - 25. Kick-off is scheduled for Saturday 13 March 2027 at 16:00 UTC.
Form Guide
PAOK — All Games: 5W 3D 2L from 10 Super League 1 outings this season, averaging 1.80 points per game. Last five: W W L W W. Offensively they are averaging 1.90 goals per game, with 1.30 conceded. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets. PAOK have played only a handful of Super League 1 games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
In front of their own supporters this season, PAOK have posted 7W 3D 0L at Toumba Stadium — 2.40 PPG. They are averaging 2.20 goals per home game — a prolific scoring rate in front of their own fans. 7 clean sheets from 10 home games (70%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at Toumba Stadium. At home, both teams have scored in only 30% of games — reinforcing BTTS No as the home-venue-backed angle. Their home PPG of 2.40 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.80 — PAOK are significantly better at Toumba Stadium than their overall form suggests.
Across all Super League 1 games this season, OFI have recorded 5W 1D 4L from 10 outings — 1.60 PPG. Last five: W L W W D. They are scoring at 1.60 per game and conceding 1.30. 4 clean sheets in 10 outings (40%) underlines their defensive solidity. OFI have played only a handful of Super League 1 games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
OFI away from home this season: 3W 3D 4L from 10 away games — 1.20 PPG on the road. Away from home they average 1.40 goals scored and 1.70 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 80% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture.
The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: PAOK 1.80 PPG, OFI 1.60 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.
H2H Record
The fixture history tells a clear story: PAOK have dominated this rivalry, winning 6 of 10 past contests while OFI have managed just 2 wins.
Goals have been a feature of this fixture. The last 10 meetings have averaged 2.8 per game — a rate that gives the Over 2.5 market a solid historical foundation. The most recent clash, on 18 Jan 2026, ended 3–0 with PAOK winning.
From a betting standpoint, the H2H backs both PAOK and goals. The home side's 6 wins from 10 meetings, combined with an average of 2.8 goals per game, gives the home win and Over 2.5 combination a historically grounded case.
Trading Patterns
PAOK in-play and half-time data (37 games, 18 at home): they score before half-time in 61% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 50% of the time; they lead at the break 51% of the time; BTTS occurs in 28% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 50% of games (home games); they keep a clean sheet 49% of the time.
OFI in-play and half-time data (37 games, 18 at away): they score before half-time in 72% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; BTTS occurs in 61% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 72% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — PAOK 46% versus OFI 46%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (PAOK 60% | OFI 65%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects PAOK 1.77 xG and OFI 0.77 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: PAOK attack 1.305 / defence 0.731 | OFI attack 1.056 / defence 0.995. League average goals — home 1.366 / away 0.993. PAOK carry an above-average attack strength of 1.305 — their λ of 1.77 reflects genuine attacking quality above the league norm. PAOK's defence rating of 0.731 is below average — the home backline is amplifying the visitor's projected output. Data: 31 PAOK games / 31 OFI games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: PAOK 59% | Draw 28% | OFI 13%. Fair-value odds: PAOK 1.69 | Draw 3.57 | OFI 7.69. The model has a clear lean to PAOK (59%) — a 46pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 47% | BTTS probability 47% | Total xG 2.54. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 47%/53% — the total xG of 2.54 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 47% 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 PAOK at 59% — clear model lean. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 28% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
Poisson projects 2.54 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 47% probability — Poisson-only — limited corroboration conviction — though H2H averaging only 2.8 goals per meeting points in the other direction.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is No at 47%. Form rates are neutral: PAOK 30% | OFI 80%.

Model Mechanics
Working from PAOK's attack rating (1.30) and OFI's defence rating (0.99), the model arrives at 1.77 expected goals for the home side. The same calculation in reverse, OFI's attack versus PAOK's defence, projects 0.77 expected goals for the visitors.

📈 Form Insight
Where Both Sides Stand
PAOK come into this having played 37 games, going 22W 10D 5L for 2.05 points per game. Their last five reads W-W-L-W-W. It's still early in the season for PAOK, so this record blends in a handful of games from last season too.
On the other side, OFI sit at 1.32 PPG from 37 outings (15W 4D 18L), a run that reads W-L-W-W-D across their last five. It's still early in the season for OFI, so this record blends in a handful of games from last season too.

Home Ground vs the Road
PAOK's home form reads 14W 4D 0L across 18 games on their own ground, a 2.56 PPG return. That's noticeably better than their 2.05 PPG overall — PAOK are a different proposition at home than their general record suggests.
Away from home, OFI have taken 1.00 points per game from 18 outings (5W 3D 10L).
