Top-Three Predictions for Olympiacos vs Atalanta

Bookmaker Ratings prediction one: Olympiacos Win or Atalanta Win and Under 4.5 Goals – 1.61

Bookmaker Ratings prediction two: Atalanta 0 Goals Handicap – 1.51

Bookmaker Ratings prediction three: Both Teams To Score Yes – 1.68

Olympiacos Win or Atalanta Win and Under 4.5 Goals

The Greek side are in great home form as they won their last ten games in front of their fans. On the other side, Atalanta won two of their last five away games. In addition, all of Olympiacos’s last 13 home games and Atalanta’s three of their last five games saw under 4.5 goals.

Atalanta 0 Goals Handicap

Olympiacos lost three of their six Europa League games in the group stage and Atalanta drew three of their six matches in the Champions League group stage. Thus Atalanta gave a big chance in covering the 0 goals handicap in Thursday’s match.

Both Teams To Score Yes

Despite being a strong defensive side in their domestic league, Olympiacos have not done well in Europe, To point out, the Greeks scored nine and conceded nine in their seven matches so far. The same goes for Atalanta with a goal record of 14-14, we think we will see goals from both teams on Thursday.

Preliminary review and match prediction for Olympiacos vs Atalanta

It could be a better result for Olympiacos in the first leg as they lost 2-1 in Bergamo. In fact, the Red and Whites took the lead in the first half after 16 minutes through Soares. But the Greek side conceded twice after the break and now need a two-goal cushion to advance to the next round.

 A superb home form shows that coach Pedro Martins’ side lost just once at the Georgios Karaiskakis stadium. Moreover, the Red and Whites scored in all of those games with an average of 2.25 goals per game. Surely, Martins needs that form to be present on Thursday.

Atalanta on the other side, are not having their best of spells triumphing in only of their last seven outings. Coincidentally, that was over Olympiacos in the first leg last week. Moreover, La Dea failed to score in three of their last five matches.

However, on the positive side, Gasperini might be a little confident in his defense when playing on the road. To illustrate, the Nerazzurri, have an average of 0.75 goals conceded per game and have two clean sheets in their last four away games.

Olympiacos vs Atalanta Prediction

Gasperini needs to activate all his defensive tactics skills to defend the 2-1 lead his team has from the first leg. As for Pedro Martins, all his success in the Greek league will count for nothing if his team can’t win this one by a two-goal margin. Therefore we will back a double chance of home or away win combined with under 4.5 goals.

Safe Bet

As we saw earlier in our review, scoring goals isn’t an issue for the Greeks. However, the question is whether Olympiacos are capable of maintaining that record against top European sides. In any case, we think the Red and Whites are capable of scoring at least one goal and we will back it to be our safe bet with odds of 1.80 at Vbet.

Quick Rich

With Atalanta’s recent form and especially defensively, one expects for them to concede against a team that averages 2.25 goals at home. We think the anytime correct score of 2-1 has a big probability and with odds of 5.1o at Vbet we recommend it for a quick profit.

Olympiacos vs Atalanta Team News

Coach Pedro Martins is likely to field the same starting 11 for this game as the first leg. Notably, Olympiacos have no serious injuries to that team other than to GarryRodrigues who is suffering a fracture, and midfielder Androutsos.

Gasperini on the other side has a handful of players on the casualty list. To point out, Duvan Zapata and Luis Muriel are out with different muscle injuries. Also, Palomino in defense and attacking midfielder Miranchuk are doubtful for Thursday’s game.

Olympiacos vs Atalanta Highlighted Player

Tiquinho Soares is a Brazilian player who has scored seven goals in the Greek league and three in the Europa League. His best spell was with FC Porto of Portugal where he played 97 games and scored 45 goals. Surely, the 31-year-old will be a key player in Olympiacos’s offense on Thursday.
