Olympiacos - PAS Giannina Match Preview

Olympiacos hosts Pas Giannina for the 17th round of the Greek Super League.

Olympiacos had one of their worst performances of the season last Wednesday against PAOK but managed to escape with one point from Thessaloniki. They conceded a goal on 51', narrow escaped a second one after a while, however, they tied on 77' avoiding the loss.

Managing to escape with a point from an important match with such a bad performance, shows why Olympiakos is the favorite for another title, being the only undefeated team of the Greek League so far.

The red-whites are seated at the top of the table having 42 points, 9 more than second-placed Aris and AEK who are sharing this spot.

PAS Giannina comes from a home bore draw vs Aris. Heavy rain and a terrible field did not allow both teams to play a productive game, with a few shots on target, leading inevitably to a 0-0.

That was the 5th match for PAS Giannina without a win, having only one win in the last 10 matches. This bad streak keeps them low in the table, being 11th placed with 15 points.

Olympiacos are undoubtedly the favorites to win in this one, getting back to victories while at home they have 8/8. PAS Giannina will have a difficult task in Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium but their tempo can lead to a fast-paced match. My choice is over 2,5 goals to be scored at 1.72 odds.
