Command Analysis
FC FCSB
RomaniaCurrent form
FCSB performs confidently both at the national level and in European tournaments. In the Europa League, the only misfire occurred in the second round match against Rangers (0:4). In one of the last matches of the Romanian championship, the club lost to the outsider Botosani (0:1), but then crushed Unirea (3:0). The team remains three points behind first place.
The FCSB has a quality defensive line. In the last three home games, the Romanian club did not concede a single goal. In the last round of the Europa League, they managed to beat the Danish Midtjylland at their stadium with a score of 2:0.
Disqualifications and injuries
The hosts have no particular problems with the squad. Only Mihai Lisandro remains in the infirmary.
Interesting trends for betting
- The team has suffered only one defeat in four Europa League matches
- The club has won three of its last four matches
Estimated line-up: Tarnovanu - Pantea, Ngezana, Dava, Popescu - Alhassan, Ejuma - Stefanescu, Tanase, Miculescu - Birlidja.
Olympiacos
GreeceCurrent form
Last season, Olympiacos won the Conference League and automatically received a place in the Europa League. In the first round, the team suffered a 0:2 defeat to Lyon. However, in the next two matches, José Luis Mendilibar charges did not allow themselves to misfire 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). Finally, on November 7, the Greek club played the fourth match of the tournament, where they tied with the Scottish Rangers (1:1). In the domestic Super League, after 10 rounds, Olympiacos managed to take the lead, but is only one point ahead of the current champion, PAOK.
Disqualifications and injuries
Yusuf Yazici is out with a knee injury, while Santiago Hezze and Gelson Martins are questionable.
Estimated line-up: Tsolakis - Rodinei, Retsos, Karmu, Costinha - Esse, Mouzakitis - Martins, Chiquinho, Masouras - El Kaabi.

1.82Tip and bets
The hosts are doing well in the Europa League, but their opponents were rather modest - RFS, PAOK and Midtjylland. They were unable to fight back against the superior Rangers. It is possible that FCSB will not be able to score points today either, but Olympiakos has better players at its disposal.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (0) on Olympiakos for 1.55
Bet on total
Olympiakos prefers to rely on defense and will probably impose its football on the 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. This match will probably not be productive either.
Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals for 1.82
Bet on corners
Olympiakos, as the favorites, will dictate the terms of the game and will spend a lot of time near the opponent goal in positional attacks. With a high degree of probability, the guests will win on corners today.
Prediction: Olympiacos win on corners with odds of 1.55
