Viktoria Plzen vs Olympiacos Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League
by Steve Ashfield | in Champions League Predictions
Viktoria Pizen have made a good start to the defence of their Czech Republic league title. They have won both of their opening league fixtures and now turn their attention to the Champions League. Last season saw them go directly into the group stages of this competition. They finished third behind Real Madrid and Roma but then lost in the last 32 of the Europa League to Dinamo Zagreb. The season before that Pizen reached the last sixteen of the Europa League. Home form in the Champions League has seen them win just one of their last seven. That was a home victory over Roma in their final group game last season.
Olympiakos last played in the Champions League two seasons ago and unsurprisingly failed to qualify from a group that included Barcelona and Juventus. They were in the Europa League last season losing in the last 32. The Greek champions have had an unbeaten pre-season and are undefeated in their last 16 games. Their recent form in the Champions League has seen them lose six of their last eight away games. The other two were both qualifiers and resulted in Greek wins. This looks a fairly even game and the pressure is on Pizen to get a lead to take to Greece. PIzen have only lost one of their last 23 home matches and that was in a friendly. Go for them to get the home win in this game.
