Olympiakos vs Rangers: Europa League Match Prediction
In three rounds played in the Europa League, Olympiacos and Rangers have scored six points each and are located on neighboring lines in the table. How will the face-to-face meeting between the rivals on November 7 go and what are the best bets to choose? - the answer is in our forecast
Command Analysis
Olympiacos
GreeceCurrent form
Last season, Olympiacos won the Conference League and moved up a class. The start of the Europa League was unsuccessful – a 0:2 defeat away from home to Lyon. However, in the next two matches, José Luis Mendilibar’s men did not allow themselves to miss the mark and, in their usual style with an emphasis on defense and counterattacks, won with a “dry” score against Braga (3:0) and Malmö (1:0). In the domestic Super League after 10 rounds, Olympiacos is only in fourth place with 18 points. As in the European Cup, the team is doing well in defense in the national championship – only seven goals conceded.
Disqualifications and injuries
Pirola, Ntoi, Ortega, Bakoulas, Stamenic and Willian will be unable to help their team today due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- In three of Olympiacos' last four matches, more than one goal was not scored
- In four of the previous five matches, the team did not lose in the first half
Estimated line-up : Tsolakis - Rodinei, Retsos, Karmu, Costinha - Esse, Mouzakitis - Martins, Chiquinho, Masouras - El Kaabi.
Rangers
ScotlandCurrent form
Rangers are not performing consistently in the current Europa League. The Scots started with a confident away victory over Malmo with a score of 2:0. Then there was a crushing defeat at home to Lyon (1:4). In the third round, the team from Glasgow left no chance to the Romanian FCSB (4:0). In the national championship, it seems, there will be no usual fight for first place with Celtic. Philippe Clement charges have only 19 points after ten rounds and are already nine points behind the leading duo of Celtic and Aberdeen.
Disqualifications and injuries
Yilmaz, Matondo and Cortes are injured and will not play in the upcoming match.
Interesting trends for betting
- The last three games involving the Rangers have seen goals exchanged
- In the four previous matches between the Scots, the bet was on a total of over 2.5 goals
Estimated line-up : Butland - Tavernier, Sautar, Propper, Jefte - Diomande, Barron - Cerny, Lawrence, Bajrami - Dessers.
Trends
Bet 1st half: total under 1.5 goals
The bet has played in the hosts' last four matches
1.37Bet Olympiakos to score in the second half
In the previous two matches, Olympiacos scored goals in the second 45 minutes
1.54Bet Exact score 1:1
Olympiacos have drawn with their opponents in two of their last six matches
6.30Tip and bets
Olympiacos will play at home today and will most likely impose their pragmatic and careful football on their opponent. In this scenario, it is logical to pay attention to the bet on the total under goals scored. In none of the four previous matches involving the Greeks were more than three goals scored. Clearly, Rangers will have to adapt.
Our prediction is total under three goals with odds of 1.60
Bet on the outcome
We have opponents that are comparable in class in many ways. It is no coincidence that after three rounds in the Europa League, they have equal results and neighboring lines in the table. It is quite possible that the confrontation will end in a draw.
The second bet is a draw with odds of 3.70
Bet on corners
Olympiakos will dictate the terms of the game on their home field and will spend a lot of time near the opponent goal in positional attacks. The hosts are very likely to win on corners today.
Prediction: Olympiacos win on corners with odds of 1.55
