Odds: Olympiacos (27/10) Draw (23/10) Man U (6/5)Gamingtips Prediction – Olympiacos 1:1 Man United

Olympiacos are having an unbelievable domestic season – they are currently top of the Greece Super League and unbeaten having won 24 of 26 games.

They have scored 78 goals in 26 games and conceded just 9.

Manchester United are currently 6th in the English Premier League having won just 13 of their opening 27 fixtures.

They have scored 43 goals in 27 games and conceded 31.

Olympiacos have lost just 2 of their last 40 games and although Manchester United will post a far greater threat than the majority of teams in the Greece Super League, form and confidence may be enough to give them a lead going into the second leg next month.

If Olympiacos can maintain their outstanding defensive record, they will give Manchester United a tough time in what has been one of Manchester United’s worst seasons in recent years.

Manchester United are unbeaten in the Champions League this season and they will be looking to score an away goal to give them an advantage heading into the second leg at Old Trafford.
