Olympiakos travel to Crete

OFI had an away draw 1-1 with Lamia in the previous round. They scored at 62' but their opponent equalized from the penalty spot at 80'. That was the second point for OFI after 6 games in Greek League. The truth is, that their schedule was quite difficult, as well as the upcoming game against Olympiakos. They registered two defeats in home in an equal number of games against PAOK (1-3) and AEK (0-3). Now, they are second from the botom with 2 points and 5-14 goals overall. They can't cope with difficult games and things are going to be very tricky at this one vs the 'red-whites'.

In the big clash against AEK, Olympiakos were so close to win but their opponent equalized in the dying minutes. They scored at 59' but they didn't manage to keep their goal till the end. Now they are in 3rd place of the table, having 13 points, 3 less from PAOK and Atromitos who are topping the League. After 6 games they have registered 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat (from PAOK) with 10-3 goals overall. At the game against OFI they have no choice but to win, so as tο keep their distance from the top teams. At the same time, a win in Crete will make them face Dudelange in a high flying mood. This upcoming game for Europa League is quite crucial too.

Olympiakos can't afford losing another game at this point. On the other side, OFI have proved that they can't face such difficult opponents. I will bet on away win at 1.45.
