Freiburg vs Olympiacos. Will Freiburg continue its winning streak?
On Thursday, October 27, in Freiburg, the team of the same name will play against Olympiacos in the match of the 5th round of the Europa League group stage.
At the beginning of the season in the Bundesliga, Freiburg won 4 out of five matches, then won only one victory in five matches, and confidently beat Werder Bremen in the last round. In the standings, Streich's team is in 3rd place, only two points behind the leader.
In the Europa League, Freiburg started with a difficult home win over Karabakh (2-1), and then confidently dealt with Olympiacos (3-0) and Nantes twice (2-0 and 4-0). The task of reaching the playoffs has been solved, but it is not yet clear from what place.
Olympiacos
In 9 rounds of the Greek Super League, the Red-Whites suffered two defeats (against Aris and AEK) and scored more than two goals only once (a 3-1 victory over Ionikos). In the standings, they are in 4th place, 10 points behind the leader.
In the Europa League group, Olympiacos started with three defeats (0-3 at home against Karabakh and Freiburg and 1-2 away from Nantes), and only in the 4th round was able to survive in the away battle against Karabakh.
In the remaining two matches of the Europa League, Streich can safely experiment with the composition, because to reach the playoffs from the first place you need to score only one point. As for Olympiacos, he will try to get into the Conference League, and for this he needs to get at least one victory in the remaining two rounds. Given the weak attack of the Greek team and a very good game in the defense of Freiburg, one cannot believe in the victory of Olympiacos at all, and, in general, one should not expect a productive game. Here, the win-win option would be Total under (3.0) for 1.52, but you can also take Total under (2.5) for 2.04.
