With its 2-1 victory over Levadiakos, AEK recorded five wins in its first five home games of the league season for the first time in 25 years. Marco Nikolić’s team had previously defeated Heraklis (4-0), Aris (5-0), OFI (3-0), and Panetolikos (5-0).
The last time they started with a 5-0 record at home was during the 2001–02 season, when “Enosis” defeated “Nikos Goumas” Stadium in Nea Filadelfia, defeating Aegaleo (4-0), Xanthi (2-0), Panathinaikos (2-0), Akratitos (3-0), and Aris (4-2) in succession at the “Nikos Goumas” stadium in Nea Filadelfia, before losing 3-2 to Olympiacos.

Panathinaikos: Big goals for the restart
However, AEK failed to break another record, as it was unable to keep a clean sheet in its first five home league matches after conceding a goal yesterday. This streak dates back to the 1961–62 season, when their net remained untouched in their first five home league matches; however, in those games, they had four wins and one draw.
