Olympiacos Piraeus hosts Omonia Nicosia in the first leg of the Champions League qualification final. The match will be played on Wednesday, September 23rd at Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium (Piraeus)
Olympiacos got a quite comfortable contender in the decisive Champions League qualifying round. Pedro Martins' team is in its best condition now, and no club in Greece can stop the machine from Piraeus. The hosts had a great start in the Greek championship. They gained two victories and hammered Asteras at home on Friday (3:0). Olympiacos must play attacking football against Omonia.

Omonia Nicosia became the champions of Cyprus for the first time. Henning Berg's team relies on the experience of defenders and defensive tactics, successfully counterattacking. The Cypriots had to run 120 minutes at all three qualification matches with Crvena Zvezda, Ararat and Legia, and they gained victory in the match with the Serbs only on penalties. However, Omonia had no opponents of the level of Olympiacos. Before meeting the Greeks, the Cypriots warmed up in the championship match with AEK from Larnaca (2-1).
The teams held a friendly match not so long ago. Namely, two months ago, Olympiacos tore its opponent to pieces and won with a 3-0 score. For such a short time, the balance of power in the confrontation has not changed. Olympiacos plays at home and has a higher class. Moreover, Martins' team is much more experienced and mobile in terms of European cups. The Cypriots were lucky in the home match with Crvena Zvezda, which was better in all indicators, but I think they have no chance in this two-legged confrontation. The bet on the favorite’s victory with a minus handicap is fully justified here.
Prediction for the match: Olympiacos Piraeus to win with -1.0 handicap
