Super League: Highlights of Matchday 7 on Saturday, October 18
The seventh round of the Super League kicks off this Saturday (18/10) with three key fixtures that promise excitement and crucial points for the teams involved.
AEL Novibet vs Olympiacos: A Clash in Larissa
The action begins at the AEL Novibet Arena in Larissa, where AEL Novibet hosts Olympiacos at 17:00. The home side is undergoing a transition after a heavy 5-2 home defeat to Volos, which led to the departure of coach Giorgos Petrakis.
Stefanos Malezas steps in as the new head coach, marking his return to the Super League following his recent tenure with Athens Kallithea last season. AEL Novibet is still searching for their inaugural victory this season, having recorded four draws and two losses, placing them 12th in the standings with 4 points.
On the other hand, Olympiacos aims to bounce back after suffering their first domestic defeat of the season, a 2-1 loss to PAOK at Toumba Stadium before the international break. This setback dropped them to third place, three points behind the league leaders.
With a crucial Champions League group stage match against Barcelona looming on Tuesday (21/10), Olympiacos remains focused on securing a positive result in Larissa. Both teams have been prolific scorers early in the campaign; Olympiacos has found the net in every league match so far, while AEL Novibet has scored in five of their last matches. The “both teams to score” (G/G) market is currently offered at 2.20 odds by Novibet.
Atromitos Hosts Levadiakos: A Battle of Form and Defense
Later in the evening at 19:30, Atromitos welcomes Levadiakos to Peristeri. The hosts are coming off a defeat away to Panathinaikos and have now gone five league games without a win. Despite this, Atromitos boasts the fourth-best defensive record in the league, conceding only six goals, though they have played just two home matches so far.
Levadiakos, coached by Leonidas Vokolos, has been one of the pleasant surprises this season. With three wins, one draw against Panathinaikos, and two narrow losses to Olympiacos (3-2) and AEK (1-0), they sit comfortably in the top four with 10 points. Their attack is the most potent in the league, having scored 16 goals to date.
Fresh off a 6-0 thrashing of Panaitolikos, Levadiakos heads to Peristeri with high confidence. Forward Lagious has already netted three goals in six matches, and the odds for him to score against Atromitos stand at 4.50 with Novibet.
Panaitolikos vs OFI: A Crucial Encounter in Agrinio
The Saturday fixtures conclude in Agrinio at 20:00, where Panaitolikos faces OFI. Panaitolikos continues without coach Giannis Petrakis, who parted ways with the club following a heavy 6-0 defeat to Levadiakos. Giannis Anastasiou has returned to lead the team, having previously managed Panaitolikos from 2021 to 2023.
Panaitolikos is still seeking their first home win this season, suffering three consecutive defeats on their turf. Alongside Panserraikos, they share the league’s weakest attack, having scored only four goals so far.
Conversely, OFI secured a morale-boosting 3-1 victory over Aris in Tripoli before the break, as their home ground, the Pankritio Stadium, remains unavailable for league matches. OFI has now accumulated six points, sitting ninth with one game in hand against Panathinaikos.
Notably, four of OFI’s last five matches and three of Panaitolikos’ last four have ended with over 2.5 goals. The over 2.5 goals market for this match is priced at 2.20 by Novibet.
