In another match of the late evening slot of the third round of the Europa League group stage, Greek Olympiacos will play at home with Azerbaijani Karabakh. Your attention is invited to the forecast for this match.
Olympiacos
Olympiacos is having the worst start to the season in recent years. In the Europa League, the Piraeus started with an away loss to the French "Nantes" (1:2), after which they lost outrageously at home to the German "Freiburg" (0:3). After an international break, the team led by Michel broke a 4-match losing streak, defeating Atromitos at home (2-0), thanks to which it rose to third place in the Greek championship, but the gap from Panathinaikos remains at 7 points.
"Karabakh"
Qarabag competes well in the Europa League at the Euroarene, but in the first round lost away to the German Freiburg (1:2). In their native walls, the "racehorses" managed to defeat the French "Nantes" in a spectacular style (3:0). In the Azerbaijani championship, the Aghdam team won all 7 of their opening matches, confidently holding the lead. After an international break, Gurban Gurbanov's team achieved a strong-willed victory over Neftchi Baku (3:1) in a principled confrontation.
