OFI form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Super League this season. OFI have only managed 2 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses from their games here at Stadio Thódoros Vardinoyánnis. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on OFI to get some points in this home game. The OFI manager G. Simos might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.
N. Vafeas was the last player to score a league goal for OFI and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as OFI haven't scored in 365 minutes.
OFI's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-1 versus Asteras Tripolis (placed 6th). Prior to that, an away loss at Panathinaikos.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Volos NFC are coming to town in four days.
