TEAMS PREVIEW

Olympiacos F.C Preview

Olympiacos have experienced a mixed bag of results recently, performing better domestically than in the Champions League. In their domestic league, they sit second in the table with 7 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss. They score an average of 2.22 goals per game and take 15.44 shots per match in the Super League.

Defensively, they concede an average of 0.67 goals per game in the domestic league. In the Champions League, they have performed poorly, collecting just one point from three matches. Ayoub El Kaabi has one goal in the Champions League, while several others have scored once in the league.

Olympiacos faces a setback with Francisco Ortega and Santiago Hezze sidelined by injury; notably, Hezze is also suspended following a previous red card in the Champions League. On a positive note, the hosts benefit from a confidence boost to Daniel Podence, who recently broke a goal drought and registered an assist in their latest league victory. Strategically, the potential starting strike partnership of Ayoub El Kaabi and Mehdi Taremi offers a promising new dimension to their attack after proving effective in domestic play.

Olympiacos' possible starting lineup: Tzolakis; Costinha, Pirola, Retsos, Onyemaechi; Garcia, Maouzakitis; Podence, Taremi, El Kaabi

PSV Eindhoven Preview

PSV Eindhoven have made a more balanced start to their Champions League campaign, earning four points from their first three matches. They have also maintained a strong domestic form, remaining unbeaten in their last five fixtures across all competitions, including four victories and a draw.

PSV’s European form looks slightly better than their opponents’, with one win, two draws, and two losses in their last five Champions League games. Peter Bosz’s attacking philosophy delivers success domestically, as seen in their 5-2 win over Fortuna Sittard and their recent victory over Feyenoord. In the Champions League this season, PSV averaged 2.67 goals scored per match and conceded 2 per match. Their top goal scorers in the Champions League include Ismael Saibari (2 goals) and Dennis Man (2 goals).

PSV boasts an almost entirely fit squad for the upcoming fixture, with winger Ruben van Bommel (knee injury) being their only key absentee. Meanwhile, they are boosted by the phenomenal form of Ismael Saibari, who has scored an impressive 10 goals in his last seven appearances across all competitions, including a brace in their latest weekend match. The opposition, however, will be without striker Alassane Plea, who was not named in their Champions League squad as he continues to recover from cartilage damage. 

PSV Eindhoven's possible starting lineup: Kovar; Dest, Schouten, Gasiorowski, Salah-Edine; Saibari, Junior, Veerman; Man, Til, Perisic

OLYMPIACOS F.C vs PSV EINDHOVEN
Winning Prediction

PSV Eindhoven is the favorite to win this fixture. Their superior form, highlighted by securing four points in the Champions League compared to Olympiacos' single point, establishes them as the stronger team. 

Furthermore, PSV’s potent attack, led by the prolific Ismael Saibari, holds a distinct advantage over the vulnerable Olympiacos defense. Despite Olympiacos having the home advantage, PSV’s offensive quality should see them edge a competitive match.
