Olympiakos Preview – Can Olympiakos claim another EPL scalp?

It’ll be a strange atmosphere at the Stadio Georgios Karaiskáki on Thursday night as the Wolves fans have been banned from travelling to this 1st leg due to the Coronavirus, but Olympiakos will nevertheless enjoy home advantage here as they look to bounce back from their recent Greek cup defeat to PAOK.

The hosts were handed a 3-2 defeat away from home in the domestic cup competition but they’d previously registered three wins on the trot which included a Super League 1-0 win on the road at the very same PAOK as well as a 2-0 home win against Panaitolikos, along with dumping Premier League outfit, Arsenal, out of the previous round of the Europa League.

The Greek hosts now take on another Premier League side in the shape of Wolves in this round of 16 but recent results in this competition have produced mixed returns; their last 6 matches have resulted in 2 wins, 1 draw and 3 defeats overall, but 4 of Olympiakos’s last 6 ties at home have seen both teams score.

Our betting suggestion:
Over 2.5 goals

Wolves Preview – Can Wolves improve on road?

It’s been another successful campaign to date for Wolves as they currently occupy 6th place in the Premier League and just 2 points adrift of 5th placed Manchester United, but although they’ve lost just 1 of their last 7 matches overall in all competitions, the west midlands club haven’t had it all their own way on their travels of late.

Wolves’s one defeat during this recent period was a 3-2 loss away at La Liga side, Espanyol, in the previous round of this competition and although it could be argued that Wolves had already won the tie (having recorded a 4-0 win at Molineux in the 1st leg), the fact still remains that Wolves have won just 2 of their last 7 matches on the road in all competitions.

Away ties in the Europa League have resulted in just 1 defeat out of their 7 matches played to date but Olympiakos are arguably their strongest opponents yet on the road in this competition, so perhaps it’s best to veer away from the win markets and back goals instead as 5 of Wolves’ 7 away ties have also seen both teams score.
