REF’s picks

PAOK Thessaloniki hold the clear upper hand in overall quality and historical matchups, making them a strong selection to secure all three points on the road. Despite dealing with several notable absences, their recent league form highlights superior attacking depth compared to an OFI Crete side struggling for defensive consistency.

1. 1PAOK have dominated the recent head-to-head history, winning four of the last five encounters comfortably.
2. 2OFI Crete enter this fixture following a heavy European defeat to Bayer Leverkusen and consecutive domestic losses.
3. 3PAOK are missing several key players including Fedor Chalov and Dimitrios Pelkas, which could blunt their usual attacking edge.
