AEK Athens defeated OFI Crete 3-0 in a 6th round Stoiximan Super League match played at the Nea Filadelfeia stadium on October 10, 2026. The goals were scored by defenders Relvas and Moukoudi following corner kicks, while Mijat Gacinovic added a third goal during stoppage time. The match saw OFI reduced to ten men after Aitor was sent off in the 66th minute for a second yellow card. With this victory, AEK moved within one point of the league leaders, Panathinaikos, while maintaining their perfect winning record at the Allwyn Arena.

Leading up to the game, AEK head coach Marko Nikolic navigated significant squad challenges, including the absence of forward Barnabas Varga and concerns regarding the fitness of Olexandr Zubkov. However, Lazaros Rota returned to the starting lineup after recovering from an injury. The tactical setup featured Brignoli in goal and a defensive line comprising Pilios, Relvas, Moukoudi, and Rota.
