Olympiakos Piraeus vs PAOK Match Preview

Olympiacos Piraeus welcomes PAOK Thessaloniki in the eighth round of the Greek Super League.

The hosts after the change in their bench are trying to find a rythm but the numerous additions and releases in the last days of the transfer window have created an inhomogeneity that can only be balanced by the quality of some important individuals signed. In the previous round played in Crete against OFI, the red and whites managed to win 1-2 with an overturn. In their midweek tasks, they fought for the UEFA Europa League group stage in Azerbaijan, playing a poor 0-0, a result that now only gives them hope for third place in the group. Bakambu and James Rodriguez are quite fresh as they are ineligible for the European games and their quality is expected to prove decisive in the outcome of this encounter.

The visitors, on the other hand, failed for the third consecutive match to get the victory after drawing 1-1 with Levadeiakos, while at the same time it was the second consecutive match on the road that they were equalized at the end of the match. Away from their home in a total of three matches, they have registered the same number of draws, which has brought them nine points behind the leader Panathinaikos.

In conclusion, I expect a game in which Olympiacos will start stronger and with the push of their fans will try to take the lead. The home win is priced at pretty decent 1.79 odds and I'll stake 3 units.
