Preview: OFI Hosts AE Larisas 1964 in Greek Super League 1 Clash

HERAKLION, Greece (Interstat) — OFI will look to solidify its standing and complete a season double when it hosts AE Larisas 1964 in a Greek Super League 1 match on Saturday.

The contest at the Theodoros Vardinogiannis Stadium pits a confident OFI side against a Larissa team seeking consistency.

OFI (6-3-1 in last 10 league matches) enters with strong home form, having won four of its last five in Heraklion. Its attack has been potent, scoring multiple goals in six of those last ten outings. The club is riding high after a dramatic 3-2 victory over APO Levadeiakos on Feb. 8 and a resilient 2-2 draw with Kifisias on Feb. 15.

AE Larisas 1964 (3-4-3 in last 10) has been tougher to beat recently, earning draws in its last two matches against title-contender PAOK. However, a 4-1 friendly loss to Mexico’s Puebla on Feb. 7 exposed defensive vulnerabilities. Its road form has been a concern, with just one win in its last five away fixtures.

The head-to-head advantage belongs to OFI, which won 2-1 at Larissa on Nov. 24, 2025. A similar result is projected, with Interstat’s game simulator forecasting a 2-1 victory for the hosts.

For Larissa, striker form will be key after scoring in consecutive matches against PAOK. OFI will rely on its balanced scoring threats and home pitch advantage.

A win for OFI could propel it further up the table ahead of a midweek clash at Panathinaikós on March 4. Larissa, hovering in the mid-table, aims to build momentum before a daunting trip to face AEK Athens on March 7.

Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. local time (1700 GMT) on Saturday, Feb. 28, 2026.
