Hofmann double sends Bayer Leverkusen past OFI
Bayer Leverkusen won 2-0 away to OFI at the Pankritio Stadium in the third matchday of the Europa League's league stage. Both goals came from Jonas Hofmann inside a spell of three minutes in the first half, and the visitors were never seriously threatened after that.
AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
Hofmann struck in the 35th minute to open the scoring and added a second in the 37th, with Malik Tillman providing the assist. That was the only action the events list records, and the interval score of 0-2 stood until the final whistle. OFI had no one sent off and Leverkusen finished with all eleven on the pitch.
The contest was lopsided in territory and chances. Leverkusen had 63% of possession and took 33 shots to OFI's 6, with 15 of them on target against two. They also won ten corners to five, yet added nothing to their tally after the break.
The result extended Bayer Leverkusen's winning run to six games and left them unbeaten in eight. Their next game is away to 1899 Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga on Sunday 25 October, while OFI travel to Hapoel Beer Sheva in the Europa League on Thursday 5 November.
Jonas Hofmann scored both goals and earned a rating of 9.55, the highest of any player in the match. Malik Tillman, who set up the second, and OFI's Klidman Lilo were both rated 8.1.
Bayer Leverkusen had 15 shots on target to OFI's two.

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave OFI 14%, the draw 15%, Bayer Leverkusen 71%. It finished OFI 0–2 Bayer Leverkusen.
Leverkusen's big strength edge drives a one-sided forecast — We give Bayer Leverkusen 71% mainly because they sit 366 points higher on our strength rating, 1832 to 1466, though strong home advantage across UEFA Europa League home sides pulls a little back towards OFI. The draw sits at 15%, starting from the usual 17% for a gap this size and lowered by the usual draw rate in this competition.
Why Bayer Leverkusen at 71%?
Bayer Leverkusen sit 366 points higher on our strength rating — 1832 to 1466. Sides with a more than 240-point rating edge on the road won 65.6% of 5,887 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 10–17–73.
Why not higher?
UEFA Europa League home sides out-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to draws (23.2% vs 25.4% norm). UEFA Europa League homes won 47.0% of 4,474 games vs 44.6% across all 101,492 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.
Why is the draw only 15%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 17.4%. Not enough recent scoring data to set the goals dial — the draw stays at the class table's rate. UEFA Europa League produces fewer draws than most, taking 2.2 points off.
What did we measure but not count?
OFI have 5 fully-tracked matches with us — under our usual 25-game bar — but their strength rating is anchored to the long-run European club ratings list, which carries their wider competitive history into the number. Clubs from leagues we don't fully cover play too few tracked games for a record built from scratch, so their rating chain starts from published long-run club ratings instead of a blind first guess.
