The ground at Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium will be shaking when Olympiacos and Aston Villa lock horns in the Conference League semis, return leg on Thursday.
Against all odds, Olympiacos defeated Villa 4-2 at Villa Park. As a result, the Greeks are likely to adopt a defence-minded approach in the reverse fixture.
The good news for the hosts is that both Andreas Ntoi and Georgios Masouras are back from suspension.
Meanwhile, the Villans have no other option but to go all guns blazing at the Thrylos. As Unai Emery’s men have nothing to lose in Thursday’s encounter, away win should definitely be considered.
First-choice goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez has overcome his injury, while midfielder Youri Tielemans remains doubtful.
Morgan Rogers should be fit for the Conference League game despite limping off with injury in a 1-0 loss to Brighton at the weekend. As always, the opposition back-line should have Ollie Watkins at bay.
This match will be played on 09/05/2024 at 20:00
Prediction: 1-3
Recommended Pick: Aston Villa to Win.
