The Europa league is on the schedule tonight as Olympiacos will host Arsenal at the Karaiskakis Stadium in Pireas, Greece.
The last two times these two European giants meet, the score was 3-0 for Arsenal.
Olympiacos Form
The Red-Whites are one of the most prestigious Greek soccer club. Moreover, they are now at the top spot in the Greek Super League with 2 points above their rivals PAOK. Also, they are heading into this game after a solid domestic win in the game against Panionios with a score of 4-0.
Olympiacos is a good side, especially at home. And that is their main advantage heading into this game.
Furthermore, the team has some well known and experienced players such as Valbuena and Kostas Fortounis.
Arsenal Form
The Gunners are heading into this game after an impressive home win in the league against Newcastle. Also, the North London based team have not lost a game in any competition since the start of 2020. And it seems that Arteta is turning the tide as the Gunners look pretty solid defensively. However, the expectation is that Mikel Arteta will probably rotate some players for this game. The main expectation is that Toreira to start alongside Xhaka in order to give the team better defensive shape.
Furthermore, Arsenal is 10th in the league, so the Europa League might be their best and only chance to get into the Champions League next season.
Prediction
Both teams will try and win this game and that will bring a lot of excitement. However, Arsenal showed some defensive strength lately. Also, both teams managed to get 4-0 convincing wins in their domestic leagues. Yet, I do not expect more than 2 goals in this game.
