The team led by the Portuguese Pedro Martins is a fixed in European competitions and it would be quite strange not to see him in the group stage, since it is a picture that has dominated Greek football in recent years. Now we will see what performance can offer against a Burnley that last season was a team of the strongest in defense and with only two official matches the physical may not be in their favor.
For its part, the Burnley has suffered more than expected in the previous two that has had against Aberdeen and Istanbul, since both had to be resolved in overtime. The block commanded by Dyche is not showing the same sensations as last season, where we saw a Burnley of the most competitive finishing in European positions in a league as complicated as the Premier League. The English come to the game after having fallen in their league debut against Watford in a match where perhaps was somewhat absent-minded by the European appointment on Thursday. Now we will see what result you can get in Greece where it is never easy to come out alive due to the great pressure that puts the stands.
We have an unprecedented game ahead because these two teams have not met before either in an official match or in a friendly match.According to the sports betting houses, Olympiakos is clearly the favorite team to get the victory in the first leg. We have ahead a duel more equal than expected because they will cross two teams that like to maintain a great defensive order, being two very orderly blocks and those who like to play against. Being the first leg, we believe that both will be cautious in order to maintain the tie to live facing the return meeting and therefore, we will recommend the bet of less than 2.5 goals.
