Olympiakos v Atletico Madrid is the opening game of Champions League Group A and the Greek hosts will fancy they have to take a point at least here if they are to progress to the next phase. Read on as we preview this fascinating match, make our predictions for what will happen and offer up the best and latest betting odds and tips.
Olympiakos are somewhat up against it, with their opponents here and Juventus the two clear favourites to make it through to the next round, whilst many will be predicting the Greeks will have little more to fight for than finishing above Malmo and dropping into the Europa League.
The bookies price Atletico Madrid at evens, whilst the home side can be backed at 19/5 with William Hill and the odds for the draw are best at Coral, who offer 12/5.
Despite losing some of their best players in the summer, Madrid have still got a strong side and they should be too slick for Olympiakos here. We’d have loved to see Atletico at 11/10 but even at odds of evens they are worth a bet and so our tip here is simple: away win.
