Command Analysis
OFI Crete
OFI kicked off the Europa League with a 2-0 home win over Hoffenheim. The Greeks were followed by a series of setbacks, with defeats in three matches. In the Super League, they lost to AEK (0:3), lost to Asteras (2:2) and lost in the last round to Kalamata (3:4). In the second round of the Europa League, there was a 1-2 away defeat to Rennes. With the French, Christos Kontis' men led 1-0 until the 74th minute, but they played poorly in the end.
Bayer Leverkusen
Bayer leveled up over the course of the season, noticeably improved and is approaching the upcoming away game on a seven-match winless streak, taking into account all tournaments. In the previous five meetings, Leverkusen only won, including in the Europa League they won against Celje (2:0) and Lech (0:4). In the Bundesliga, the wards of Carles Martinez occupy the fourth place in the table after six rounds, losing the third place to Freiburg only in additional indicators. In the last round, we managed to beat Freiburg (2-1).
OFI is approaching the upcoming game on a three-game losing streak and can hardly count on even one point against an opponent superior in class. However, you should not completely discount the Greeks. In the Europa League, they have a victory over Hoffenheim at home, they had chances to score at least one point with Rennes on the road, but they played poorly in the end. We expect that Bayer Leverkusen will win the class, but it is unlikely with a difference of more than one goal. Leverkusen scored two of their last three wins with a minimal advantage in the score.
Our betting tip is for OFI to win with an Asian handicap (+2) for a coefficient of 1.80
