Olympiacos FC crowned Greek champions ahead of Cup final showdown

·

Olympiacos FC has reclaimed the Greek Super League title after a two-year hiatus, following a 1-0 home victory over AEK on Sunday, April 13.

Ayoub El Kaabi’s goal in the 55th minute sealed the win and sparked jubilant celebrations in Piraeus.

With three matches remaining, Olympiacos holds an unassailable lead at the top of the table with 66 points, and eyes a domestic double ahead of the Greek Cup Final against OFI on 17 May.

The title crowns an exceptional period for the club, which also won the Europa Conference League and is celebrating its 100th anniversary.

Panathinaikos boosted their hopes of Champions League qualification with a 3-1 win over PAOK, moving up to second place. Meanwhile, Aris all but secured fifth place in the 5–8 playoffs, and Volos climbed out of the relegation zone with a key win in the play-outs. In Super League 2, Larissa and Kifissia are set for promotion to the top division.
