Omonia (Cyp) - Olympiacos Piraeus (Gre) Prediction, Picks and Taips
On Tuesday, starting with 20:00, the match Omonia Nicosia - Olympiakos Piraeus will be played, within the playoffs of the Champions League, the return leg. In the tour, Olympiakos Piraeus won 2-0 at home, through the goals scored by Valbuena (min. 59 penalty) and El Arabi (minute 90 + 2), the only official direct meeting.
Omonia Nicosia recorded two surprises in the previous rounds, eliminating Legia Warsaw, score 2-0 after extra time and Red Star Belgrade, score 4-2 after executing the tiebreaks. However, after a modest evolution in the tour of Greece, the Cypriot group has little chance to turn the situation around. Omonia Nicosia never qualified in the group stage of the Champions League, and the previous success with the Serbian champion was the first in the 3rd preliminary round of the League, after a failed attempt against the RB Salzburg team (2010/2011).
Olympiakos Piraeus aims to qualify in the Champions League groups for the 20th time! The Greek champion was part of the group last season, in a group with Bayern, Tottenham and Red Star Belgrade, obtaining 4 points and 3rd place, qualifying in the spring Europa League. In the round match with Omonia Nicosia, the Greeks had 61% possession of the ball, 17 goal opportunities, but they only scored at the end of the game. The Cypriots did not matter at all, having only 6 chances to score and two shots on goal, which did not put Jose Sa in difficulty.
After the convincing success of the tour, it is expected that Olympiakos Piraeus will evolve cautiously in Nicosia, given that the hosts have not shown that they can pose big problems.
