Olympiacos vs Bodoe/Glimt Prediction & Picks - Europa League
by Stephen Abiola | in Soccer Picks
Olympiacos versus Bodo/Glimt is a UEFA Europa League Round of 16 matchup on Thursday evening at Karaiskakis Stadium. The home side have their work cut out in this game after losing 3-0 in Norway last week. They were stunned by the efficient visitors who now threaten to run away with this series. Bodo grabbed the lead in the 13th minute after Gundersen scored a bullet header from a corner kick. They were deservedly two goals ahead at the break before striker Kasper Hogh scored his second goal of the night to ensure his side was one foot into the quarter-finals. Olympiacos must now work extra hard to score at least 4 goals against the Norwegians, who have not kicked the ball since their last week’s heroics. They are the defending champions of the 2024 Eliteserien season, with the next campaign set to start later this month.Limited Offer. Currently at BetMGM

Olympiacos - Bodoe/Glimt: Form Analysis
Olympiacos has since moved on from the defeat against Glimpt after defeating OFI 1-0 last weekend in their league assignment. They have been superb on all fronts this season, and it will be interesting to see if they can overturn this series. The defeat against Glimt was only their second in this competition. Before that, they defeated heavyweights Porto and Qarabag to avoid the playoffs after finishing the campaign with 15 points.
Olympiacos has the best defensive record, giving up only 3 goals during the group stage.
Glimt, on the other hand, have shocked everyone with their Europa League performances this season. The Norwegian champs barely missed out on the automatic playoff spots, finishing the group stages with 14 points, the same as the eighth-placed Rangers, who had a better goal difference. Their attack has been on fire lately, defeating Twente 6-4 on aggregate in the playoff knockout phase. They certainly made Olympiacos pay for underestimating them in this matchup. Glimt will fight for a draw on Thursday, although another win would be much welcomed.

Olympiacos & Bodoe/Glimt Squad Analysis
Olympiacos will field their strongest squad to overturn last week’s damaging loss. Jose Luis Mendilibar will continue to keep his faith in Kostas Tzolakis despite the 22-year-old conceding 6 goals in their nine Europa League games. However, they must find other ways to score goals because Ayoub El Kaabi is out with a knock injury. The 31-year-old Moroccan has been on fire in this tournament, scoring seven goals in his eight appearances this season. His absence upfront was one reason they couldn’t convert their chances last week.
Glimt currently has no major injury worries.
Kjetil Knutsen will likely trust the squad that defeated Olympiacos 3-0 last week. Denmark striker Kasper Hogh will lead the line alongside Petter Hauge and O.D. Blomberg. Hogh has been one of the finest strikers in this continental competition this season, scoring 6 goals in his nine appearances. His pace and shooting accuracy will be handy when hitting Olympiacos on the counter. However, midfielders Sondre Fet and Gaute Vetti will not be available for selection.
