Olympiakos vs AEK Athens FC: Super League 1 Title Clash

Olympiakos Piraeus and AEK Athens FC collide at Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium in Piraeus on 5 April 2026, with referee T. Stieler in charge and the Super League 1 title race finely poised. AEK arrive as league leaders on 60 points after 26 games, just two clear of second‑placed Olympiakos on 58.

Both sides are in strong form: Olympiakos are unbeaten in five league matches (DWDWW), while AEK mirror that with WDWDW. Over the 26‑match league phase, AEK have been slightly more prolific (49 goals to Olympiakos’ 45) but also more open at the back (17 conceded versus Olympiakos’ 11). At home, Olympiakos have 9 wins from 13; AEK’s away record is similarly robust with 7 wins and only 1 defeat in 13.

Head-to-Head

Head‑to‑head in recent competitive meetings tilts narrowly towards Olympiakos. In the last four Super League 1 clashes, they have three wins and one draw, including a 2–0 home victory earlier this season. AEK, however, did win their most recent Cup semi‑final meeting 2–0 at OPAP Arena.

Key Forwards

Key forwards dominate the narrative: Olympiakos’ Ayoub El Kaabi (17 league goals in 21 appearances) and Mehdi Taremi (10 in 19) face AEK’s Luka Jović (16 in 23). With no confirmed injury absences listed, both coaches should have near‑full squads.

Verdict: a tight, high‑stakes derby where home solidity and recent league H2H edge slightly favour Olympiakos, but AEK’s attacking power keeps this finely balanced.
