Match preview
AEK Athens return to domestic action at the OPAP Arena aiming to keep up the pressure on the top three in Super League 1. The hosts have enjoyed a flawless home record in the league this season, winning all three matches while scoring 12 goals and conceding none. With 14 points from six league games, AEK remain unbeaten domestically and possess one of the division's sharpest attacks, led by Barnabas Varga and Luka Jovic with four goals each.
Panetolikos travel to the capital in difficult form, having suffered four consecutive league defeats against Olympiakos, Kifisia, PAOK, and Panathinaikos. Sitting ninth in the standings with nine points from seven outings, they have found goals difficult to come by on the road, netting just twice in three away trips and failing to score in two of them.
Recent head-to-head meetings also heavily favour AEK Athens, who have won five of the last six encounters between the sides in Athens and swept their last meeting 5-0 away from home. Given Panetolikos's scoring slump and AEK's commanding home statistics, the hosts hold a significant edge heading into this fixture.
