Free Betting Tips Olympiakos Piraeus vs Arsenal
It’s not just the Champions League that is making a comeback this week!
This Thursday, the 1/16 finals of the Europa League will begin across Europe. At 9 p.m., Arsenal will be traveling to the Georgios Karaiskaki Stadium in Piraeus to challenge the Olympiakos. Still in great difficulty in the Premier League, the Gunners could either take advantage of the C3 to give themselves a breath of fresh air and rebuild confidence, or simply put this European Cup aside so as not to disperse their forces and give everything for an unlikely return to the league. Note, however, that Arsenal qualified fairly easily in a pool composed of Eintracht Frankfurt, Standard Liège and Vitoria Guimaraes, winning the first 3 games and sending a team bis in the last 3 without putting in peril its first place.
What about Olympiacos in all of this? Reversed from the Champions League, the Greek club had logically been beaten by Bayern Munich and Tottenham, but had notably succeeded in keeping the Spurs, in full, in check on their lawn. Faced with an Arsenal team whose face we do not yet know, optimism can be a must!
Key stats for the match Olympiakos Piraeus vs Arsenal
In its 3 home games in the Champions League this season, Olympiakos have always scored at least 1 goal!
Fallen into a complicated hen, the Greek club showed beautiful things on its lawn: 2-3 against Bayern Munich and 2-2 against Tottenham, in a competition where the clubs align their typical team!
Arsenal have just won 4-0 against Newcastle in the league and with the defeat of Chelsea, the gap with 4th place is only 7 points. What if the Gunners bet everything on the championship at the expense of the C3?
After the beautiful 3-0 and 4-0 victories against Frankfurt and Standard during the first 2 days of C3, Arsenal started to spin in this competition and the two teams scored in the last 4 games: 3-2 and 1-1 against Guimaraes, 1-2 against Frankfurt and 2-2 against Standard.
The Gunners remain on a series of 10 consecutive games with at least 1 goal scored, and a correct balance over the period: 4 wins, 5 draws and only 1 defeat.
Olympiakos are approaching this meeting with full confidence as they have been unbeaten since November and this 2-4 at Tottenham in the Champions League (14 wins, 4 draws).
You have to go back to February 2019 to find a trace of a goal-less Olympiacos game at home.
