Lamia vs Olympiacos Piraeus Match Preview

Lamia is coming off another disappointing result, last Monday they lost at home 1-4  to OFI. They probably deserved something more than the final score indicates as their performance wasn't that bad. However, the result reflects the efficiency of these two teams, as Crete's side was more effective scoring 2 goals in each half taking a pretty deserved victory.

This defeat triggered an immediate change in Lamia's bench, Savvas Pantelidis was sacked and Leonidas Vokolos took his place.
Having just 1 victory in a total of 22 matches, Lamia remains at the rock bottom of the standings with 12 points, having 1 point less than Levadiakos and 3 less than Ionikos.

Olympiacos returned to winning ways in style, last weekend they crushed 6-1 Panaitolikos in Faliro. Mitchell's team dominated from the first minute of the match trying to take an early lead and they did it. They had a two-goal lead before halftime, and despite the fact that the visitors scored at the beginning of the second half, the hosts were stormy and scored 4 more times registering their biggest victory of the season so far.

After this emphatic win, Olympiacos took advantage of PAOK's missed points the next day against Asteras Tripolis and now sits in 3rd place with 46 points against 42 of Lucescu's team, having 5 points less than league leaders Panathinaikos and 4 points less than 2nd-placed AEK, which has a game in hand.

Lamia is currently the weakest team in the Greek Super League and has a very difficult task against Olympiacos. In addition to the difference in quality, the "red and white" team comes from a huge victory and they will want to build on it. I expect that Olympiacos with the undeniable quality of their offense can easily score some goals here. My pick in this one is Over 2.5 goals at odds of evens.
