Olympiakos and Milan met in 2014 in the match of the international cup of champions, then with a score of 3-0 the victory was won by the Greeks. In the upcoming game I do not expect from the teams of productive football. The Greeks in defense will play from defense. The rate: TM3.

Forecast: TM (3) with a coefficient of 1.53

Milan started the group stage with a minimum victory over Dudelange with the score 1: 0. Only now the game did not dictate such an alignment at all, since the advantage of the Italians was so noticeable that Milan could then win three or all four differences in the ball, so one cannot say that Milan played in energy saving mode as it could seem at first glance. And this is the main thing, since you can be sure here that Milan will not play pragmatically with the Greeks and will not keep 1: 0 or 2: 0 with all its might at its goal, the club will go on and on, this is clear.

Olympiacos may well take advantage of Milan’s defense problems, which he missed in six of them in seven games of the new season. The only dry game has already been announced above. Olympiacos for the three away games this season has never lost in two wins, scoring in that drawn game. By the way, two guest matches were exactly in the framework of the Europa League

Milan and Olympiacos are multiple champions of their countries and former members of the Champions League in the past. How will they meet in a lower rank tournament? - read in the forecast of our experts.

MILAN

Milan held the first Europa League match in the small Luxembourg town Dudelange. Rosso-Neri tested the local eponymous club and I must say that the owners managed not to lose face in that game. The defeat of the underdog (0: 1) is quite an acceptable result, but with everything it’s not what the Italians fans counted on. The Red-Blacks with three points and one goal led the quartet G. In Serie A, they defeated Sassuolo (4: 1) on Sunday and took eleventh place.

OLYMPIACOS

Two weeks ago, Olympiacos met with Betis. The Spaniards outnumbered the Greeks in key statistical indicators, but did not derive any benefit from it. The match in Piraeus ended with the score 0-0. "Red-white” formally - the third with one point. In the national championship, the flagship of national football is not the first - it has 12 points and sixth place. Measurement made after five rounds.

STATISTICS AND PERSONAL MEETINGS

"Milan" scored in the last ten matches (Serie A, LE, friendlies).

In the four matches of Oli (Super League, Cup, LE), the total did not exceed 1.5 goals and the bet was "both will score (no).

Four years ago, a personal meeting in Canada ended in favor of the Greeks (4: 0).

Forecast

Both teams could not show off in the first round. Milan, even in its current state, possesses a better selection of players than Olympiakos and releases an approximate composition to the Europa League games. We do not expect high performance and we prefer to put on the hosts, but carefully.

Our forecast is the victory of the first with a handicap (-1) with a coefficient of 1.78.

"Milan"

Because of the starting loss of "Napoli” and three consecutive draws, "Milan” hung in the middle of the Serie A standings and "he only dreams about rest”.

Because until the end of October, the Rossoneri will have to meet with teams that claim to the European Cup zone: Sampdoria, Inter and Genoa.

Regarding the first round in the Europa League, the team of Gennaro Gattuso beat Dudelange from Luxembourg 1: 0 for Luxembourg. The cardinal advantage by the moments (18-4) and 10 corner ones were embodied in a goal only in the middle of the second half.

Olympiacos

This is where competition is better than in the Premier League - in Greece. It cost "Olympiacos” to lose the match of the 5th round (the only loss), as he immediately flew out of the top four teams in the Super League.

But the "red-whites” lost not anyhow. It’s just that the current PAOK will not have any particular difficulty in taking the champion title (the loss to the eagles is 0: 1).

In the first home match, the LE "legend" met with the Spanish "Betis". The match took place almost on an equal footing, with a small margin of "cucumbers” (13–9 in blows) and ended without goals.

Forecast

We note a large amount of rudeness in the Olympiacos matches. Against "Betis", for example, the players Pedro Martins "took" rivals on the thigh 16 times. Milan, in turn, in the framework of the Italian Championship, violates the least-of-all rules - an average of 10 times per game.

The referee will be Bobby Madden, who on average warned footballers 4.7 times per game for the entire past season.

Forecast: "П1 with the score 1: 0, 2: 0 or 2: 1”

Ideally, it would be to put on the victory of the Greeks for rudeness. However, the odds on such outcomes, as always, are late, so we offer a fallback - "P1 with a score of 1: 0, 2: 0 or 2: 1” for 2.48.

Still, Higuain is unlikely to play in the match, and in fact it was the Argentine who saved the team in the first round of the LE from the coaches of the head coach

Both teams seriously claim to enter the next stage of the tournament. Milan is still leading in group F and intends to maintain this status at least until the end of the group stage.

The minimal 1: 0 victory over Dudelange hardly showed the true strength of the Milan club, since the championship remains its main priority. And there Rosso-neri go only in eleventh place. However, in the last round, Gattuso's players celebrated a 4: 1 victory over Sassuolo, which will certainly give them confidence in their own abilities.

Free soccer tips

After four consecutive victories in the championship of Greece, Olympiacos lost to PAOK with a score of 0: 1. Add home a goalless draw with Betis in the Europa League, and we can conclude about the crisis of the Pirean club. Most likely this is a planned decline before a more important part of the season.

To date, Milan demonstrates a more meaningful game. And even without that Rosso-neri is much stronger than the bronze medalist of the championship of Greece, so on Thursday it’s the Italian club that will celebrate the victory in the match LE.

MILAN - OLYMPIACOS

This will be the third match between Milan and Olympiacos in Euro cups. They first met in 1959, when Milan beat Olympiacos in the Champions Cup 5: 3 by the sum of two meetings;

Milan won four out of five European Cup home games against teams from Greece, never losing;

Milan lost only one of seven matches in the group stage of the Europa League (+ 4 = 2) - visiting Rijeka with the score 0: 2. At home, he did not lose any of the three matches in the Europa League group (+ 2 = 1);

In February-March 2012, Olympiacos won its first three matches in the Europa League. Since then, he has spent 18 fights in the tournament and has not won a single victory (= 6-9);

In the first round, Milan's winning goal against Dudelange scored Gonzalo Higuain. For his last 12 matches in the Europa League, he scored nine points in the Goal + Paz system (7 goals and 2 assists).

The prediction for the match Milan - Olympiacos according to statistics: the home team will win without conceding goals, scoring at least two goals. Gonzalo Higuain will be distinguished in Milan.

Over the weekend, Milan was surprised by defeating Sassuolo 4: 1. The home team, in the event of victory, came in second place, and it seemed that they were clearly in better shape than Milan, who had not won three rounds in a row. But even without center-hitters (Gonzalo Higuain and Patrick Cutrone missed the match due to injury), the Rossoneri unexpectedly beat Roberto De Derbi's team.

Free soccer tips

Against Olympiacos Higuain will not be either, but Cutrone is ready to play. Gonzalo brought Milan a difficult victory over Dudelange in Luxembourg, but his goals do not help him in the championship - Higuain scored Cagliari and Atalanta, but the team played a draw. The Argentine already plays an important role, but so far Milan is not so much dependent on him, because with the lack of scorer you can cope.

Olympiacos started the Europa League with a zero draw with Betis, and Sunday suffered the first defeat of the season, giving way to PAOK. In the last four matches, the team of Pedro Martins scored just two goals, and this is good news for Milan with his problem defense. The Rossoneri did not miss only Dudelange, but it is worth considering that most of the games were played away. At home things are not bad: the victory over Roma (2: 1) and a draw with Atalanta (2: 2). But in general, Milan's win-win series is already six matches - a good result, although of course, more was expected from matches with Cagliari and Empoli.

Free soccer tips

With Dudelange, all members of the group are counting on maximum points, so Milan’s success in Luxembourg needs to be consolidated with a victory over Olympiacos at home. Now the Greeks are not at all the team that could claim to qualify for the Champions League playoffs. The Pyreis have a decline, and their ceiling is at least a point on San Siro.

In five of the seven matches of the season, Milan scored in the first half - this option is worth considering in this game.
