After a challenging period since returning from the Africa Cup of Nations, Moroccan striker El Kaabi has put his scoring troubles behind him. In the opening match of the 25th round, he powered Olympiakos to a convincing 3-0 victory over OFI in Heraklion, proving his worth immediately after finalizing his new contract with the club. With this win, Olympiakos has regained the top position in the league with 57 points, ahead of AEK and PAOK, who have games to play tomorrow.

The victory not only boosts Olympiakos's confidence but also raises concerns for OFI, who remain on 29 points and face uncertain prospects for qualifying for the playoffs for positions 5-8. The league situation is tight, with multiple teams vying for the playoff spots, indicating that OFI must improve their performance soon to avoid slipping further down the standings.

The match showcased not only El Kaabi's prowess but also highlighted a near miss for Olympiakos very early in the game. A potential goal hit the post due to a mishap from OFI's goalkeeper, signaling that the team must tighten their defense if they wish to remain competitive. As the season progresses, every point matters, and both Olympiakos and OFI will be keen to ensure their respective ambitions are realized in the final rounds of the league.
