Olympiakos vs Lamia Match Preview

After Lamia's surprising qualification over Olympiacos in last season's Greek Cup, these two teams will face each other again in this season's quarter-finals.

Olympiacos comes from an important victory in Peristeri, scoring the winner in the dying minutes of tje game This outcome kept them at the top of the table of the Greek Super League and gave them extra motivation. 

After a goalless draw in last week's first quarter-final, Olympiakos are expected with their best eleven in this second leg to fight for a ticket for the next round of the competition. They will try to take early the lead, in order not to avoid any problems later in the game.

On the other hand, Lamia are not in good shape as they remain winless for the last 7 matches, dropping at the 12th place of the table. Lamia will try to repeat last year's miracle against Olympiacos, but this won't be easy at all.

Olympiacos are clearly the favorites to win in this second leg. I think that they will not do the same mistakes this season, trying to open the scoreline from the beginning of the game. Besides, as we saw in their last matchup for the Greek Super League a month ago, Olympiacos were far superior from Lamia, winning clearly 4-0. The home team to win is offered at very low odds, as expected. The home team to win from the first half is my call (HT/FT 1-1) offered at 1.55 odds.
