The Olympiacos have recently suffered hot and cold spells. Out of their last five games in all competitions, they have only been able to win two and score three goals. In their last nine games, they have only succeeded in keeping two clean sheets defensively, which is a little alarming. Olympiacos have been below par with their set-piece abilities this season, having scored just two goals. The 47-time league winners would dearly love to pull through with all three points after a very poor mid-week in Azerbaijan.
PAOK Thessaloniki haven’t had the greatest of times lately, either. Their last three games have resulted in a loss, two draws, and no clean sheets. After seven games, they have 12 points in the season but scored seven goals, giving them a goal-per-match rating. PAOK Thessaloniki will be seeking to maintain the momentum and secure some victories under their belt. The double-headed eagles of the North will turn to Khaled Narey and Jasmin Kurtic, who are their best chances at goals.
Olympiacos will be without the services of Pajtim Kasami, Sime Vrsaljko and Tomas Vaclik, while PAOK Thessaloniki have their share of injuries with Brandon Thomas and Vieirinha not available for selection.
