Olympiacos Piraeus hosts Wolverhampton Wanderers in the first leg of the Europa League 1/8 finals. The match will be played on Thursday, March 12th at Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium (Piraeus)
Olympiacos already knocked out one English club in the last round of the Europa League, having created a small football miracle. Having lost at home (1-0), the Legend won with the same score in London. Then the Greeks conceded seven minutes before the end of the second extra time. It seemed this was the end, and Arsenal would go further. But no, the Greeks thought differently and pulled out a victory in the 120th minute.

Wolverhampton passed the 1/16 finals with much fewer difficulties. Having beaten Espanyol at home (4-0, the Wolves went to Barcelona purely on an excursion. And they even allowed themselves to lose there (3-2). In general, the team is in good shape and shows perfect results in the Premier League.
Greek football cannot boast of spectacular and scoring indicators. For example, Olympiacos played with Over 2.5 goals scored in only nine of 26 matches of the local championship. And this is the leader of the championship. Both matches of the last Europa League round also ended with low scoring. Taking into account the fact that the Legend lost to Arsenal in the first leg of the last round, the Greeks will try to play as accurately as possible in defense. Wolverhampton will surely be pleased with a draw in the away match. And it will not particularly press, focusing the main forces on protecting its net. In general, I think that we won’t see more than two goals in the upcoming match. The tournament is already entering the finish line. After this round, the team will have to pass only two stages to reach the final. In such a situation, entertainment usually begins to yield to pragmatism.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
