OLYMPIACOS TOO STRONG FOR AEK
It was a season to remember for the Erythrolefki.

Overall, Pedro Martins’ troops tallied 28 wins, seven draws and one defeat in the 2019/2020 Super League season, only losing the one match against PAOK. Olympiacos finished 18 points above the Dikefalos tou Vorra.
Furthermore, Olympiacos managed to score 74 goals in the league, while only conceding 16 at the same time. AEK registered the second highest goal tally with 59 markers on the board.
