Leading team of Kazakh Premier League is unable to battle in Europa League this season so far. Astana gained only one point in three matches of the group stage and scored two with six goals allowed. The hosting side unexpectedly lost their reverse fixture in Greece, 1-4 and upcoming match is the last opportunity for the team to get involved into a battle for a place in next round.

Olympiakos, in turn, had a setback in the end of September but managed to bounce back after two defeats in a row and recorded six wins with 15-2 goal difference. The team shares first two positions with APOEL and considered as main contenders for promotion to knockout phase. As to the away record of the team, Olympiakos played seven match on the road this season and recorded five wins with two defeats.
Greece side hasn’t notice resistance of Astana in reverse fixture but the clash in Kazakhstan promise to be different. We shouldn’t expect to see number of goals scored in the match as Astana haven’t allowed a single goal in their six out of last seven home matches. The hosts are used to their artificial grass and they will definitely improve performance in defense.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.0 goals.
