Olympiacos vs Rangers Prediction & Betting Tips - Europa League
by Daniel Ngulu | in Europa League Predictions
The fourth round of matches in the Europa League will pit Rangers against last season’s Conference League winners Olympiakos. The two sides are set to face off on Thursday at the Georgios Karaiskaki Stadium in Piraeus. We have a prediction for the match as the Gers and Thrylos meet competitively for the first time.
From the opening three matches, each of these sides dropped three points. Olympiakos started off their campaign on a losing note, falling 2-0 away to Lyon. They, however, recovered to beat Sporting Braga and Malmo.
Rangers started with an away win at Malmo but could not get a hold of Lyon as the French side beat them at home 4-1. The Glasgow giants recovered on Match Day 3 with a resounding 4-0 win at home against Steaua Bucharest. This match makes for interesting stats. Rangers have one win in eight matches against Greek opposition while Olympiakos have a 100% home record against Scottish sides.

Olympiacos - Rangers: Form Analysis
The only meeting in the history of these two clubs was in a preseason friendly match in July 2023. Olympiakos posted a 3-1 win and will be looking to replicate the same in their quest for three points.
The Greeks have seen relative success in Europe lately, their high point being beating Fiorentina to the Conference League last season. That is why their loss to Lyon on Match Day 1 was a surprise.
The 3-0 win against Braga and 1-0 at Malmo in the next two matches, however, restored the Greek side’s pride. Olympiakos have only lost once more after that Lyon defeat, and will come here as firm favorites to bag three points.
Ahead of this game, they posted back-to-back wins, the most recent ending 2-1 against Panserraikos.
Olympiakos have a perfect record at home when facing Scottish teams.
Rangers, Like their hosts, start this round on six points. Thanks to a superior goal difference though, they are placed one spot higher. While this hasn’t been a mediocre season so far for Rangers, they’ve lacked the consistency required of their status.
In their 18 matches this season, they failed to win in seven, losing five times. Two of those losses were in Europe, one of them engineering their elimination from the Champions League.
Coming into this match, they claimed a 2-1 win over Motherwell in the League Cup semis, recovering from a 2-1 defeat to Aberdeen. Going into their third straight away match, Rangers will be eyeing an improvement after only winning three of their eight away matches this season.

Olympiacos & Rangers Squad Analysis
When Olympiakos powered their way to winning the Conference League, one name, Ayoub El Kaabi stuck out. The forward has picked it up from where he left last season. He is already on three goals in the Europa League, scoring a brace in the win against Braga before netting the winner against Malmo.
Needing support in attack, the Moroccan will be boosted by Kristoffer Velde’s new-found form. Velde has recorded three goal contributions in three games.
The hosts will, however, miss a number of attacking players for this game. Willian and Yusuf Yazici are not just sidelined, they are listed as long-term injuries.
Ex-Brazilian international Willian is unavailable for Olympiakos until January.
At Rangers a lot of focus will be on Czech forward Vaclav Cerny who returned from injury to play the full game over the weekend. Before his short layoff, Cerny had netted three times in two matches and the visitors can place hopes on him here.
It is not all rosy for the visitors though, as Ross McCausland is listed as a doubt while Oscar Cortes remains unavailable. Rabbi Matondo and Ridvan Yilmaz are in training but may not be ready for the Thursday game.

Our Olympiacos vs Rangers Prediction
Two teams with good numbers in attack face off in this match. Recent form doesn’t favor Rangers but we can’t fault their numbers in attack, which have contributed to their high scoring returns. Olympiakos are also doing well on that front and especially at home.
In the Europa League, Olympiakos’ last five matches produced 18 goals. Also at home in the competition each of their last five outings had three or more goals. Such numbers point to a possible high-scoring game and our prediction for Olympiakos v Rangers is for over 2.5 goals.
Olympiacos vs Rangers - Other Interesting Predictions
Olympiakos to win
Rangers aren’t great performers on the road in Europe, and facing a team of Olympiakos’ caliber is sure to trouble the Glasgow giants a bit. Olympiakos also have a perfect home record against Scottish sides.
On the flipside, Rangers’ record against Greek opposition reads one win in eight matches. Our second prediction for this match, therefore, will be for Olympiakos to win.
