LiontipsBarcelona - Olympiacos: betting tip and bets for the Champions League match
Command Analysis
Current form
Barcelona confidently entered the season, immediately issued a winless streak of eight matches, taking into account all tournaments. However, largely due to the injuries of the leaders, the Catalans could not maintain such a pace. First, there was a defeat against PSG in the Champions League on their own field (1:2). This was followed by a disastrous match away to Sevilla in La Liga with a loss of 1:4. In the last round of the championship, they managed to beat Girona with great difficulty (2:1). Due to the losses in the squad in that meeting, Hansi Flick was forced to release young players on the field. In general, so far the situation in the Champions League is not the worst.: three points after two rounds, an intermediate 16th place, but in case of further failures, finishing in the top 8 will be questionable.
Disqualifications and injuries
Ter Stegen, Gavi, Olmo, J. Garcia will not play today. Lewandowski is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- In five consecutive matches involving Barcelona in the Champions League, an exchange of goals was recorded.
- At least three goals have been scored in the Catalans' previous seven matches in the Champions League.
Approximate composition: Szczensny — Kunde, Kubarsi, E. Garcia, Balde — De Jong, Pedri — Yamal, Lopez, Rashford – Torres.
Current form
Olympiacos scored only one point in the opening two rounds of the Champions League and is approaching the upcoming exit in 29th place in the table. At the start, the Greeks drew 0-0 at home with Pafas, and then expectedly lost to Arsenal with a score of 0.:2. In the Greek championship, following the results of seven rounds, the wards of Jose Luis Mendilibar are in second position, one point behind PAOK. It was from this opponent that Olympiacos suffered its only defeat since the start of the draw (1:2). In the last round of the class, Larisa was beaten 2-0 away.

9.30Tip and bets
Barcelona has experienced a slight decline caused by injuries to key players. In three consecutive matches, the Catalans played unconvincingly, they lost to PSG, Sevilla, and the victory over Girona turned out to be very difficult. It is unlikely that at the moment the Catalans are ready to formalize a crushing victory over Olympiacos. The Greeks don't have enough stars from the sky on the international stage, but the team is well organized, the squad is well-played, they avoided a complete failure in London with Arsenal and today they may well offer decent resistance to Barcelona.
Our betting tip is for Olympiacos to win with an Asian handicap (+2) for a coefficient of 2.02
Bet on the total
Barcelona is used to playing bold attacking football, there are no problems with scoring goals. Another thing is that the Catalans are not reliable in defense, they missed in the previous five matches, taking into account all the tournaments, and they are unlikely to be able to win back to zero today. There is a high probability that the opponents will exchange goals scored.
The betting tip is that both will score with a coefficient of 1.98
Betting on corners
Olympiacos has impressive statistics on corners: in the previous ten matches, the team served more corners than the opponents. In particular, the Greeks won by this indicator against Arsenal in London with a score of 5.:3. We do not think that today the guests will be significantly inferior in the corners.
Prediction – Olympiacos will win on corners with a handicap (+4.5) with a coefficient of 1.75
