Olympiacos vs Aris Match Preview

For the first round of the Greek Super League playoffs, first-placed Olympiacos faces second-placed Aris at G.Karaiskakis Stadium.

In the midweek game for the Europa League, Olympiacos won 0-1 over Arsenal but failed to qualify to the next round of the competition. However, it's a matter of time to be crowned champions in the Greek league, so it can be considered a very successful season for the team. Today's match can be described as not a crucial game for them, but still, I think they will aim for the three points.

Aris is currently placed 2nd in the league, having a 4-point difference from PAOK and 6 from the fifth-placed, Panathinaikos. This match is crucial for them since every point is important to secure the second spot but it won't be at all an easy task for them.

These two sides have competed 4 times this season with Olympiacos registering 2 wins by 2-1 and 2 draws by 1-1. Despite the fact that both sides have plenty of quality back on their defensive lines, they always score many goals in their matchups.

Over 2,5 goals to be scored is my call for this one. Olympiacos comes from a huge win over strong Arsenal while Aris struggles to get as many points as they can to keep their spot in the league table and finish 2nd.
