OLYMPIACOS V TOTTENHAM ODDS HERE!
Recent Form
Spurs have endured a turbulent start to the 2019/20 campaign as they’ve gone W2-D2-L1 from their opening five matches, as the defeat came at home to Newcastle, while the stalemates were both away at Man City and Arsenal.
Those draws were very respectable results and coming into this fixture off the back of a 4-0 hammering of Crystal Palace, they’ll be confident of obtaining victory.
Olympiakos have already played nine games this term having had to come through the play-offs to earn their place in this group.
They’ve won eight of those and unfortunately for the visitors remain unbeaten this campaign so far, although it’s hard to scale what level they’re capable of reaching with Viktoria Plzen and Krasnodar probably the best outfits they’ve yet faced from a relatively poor bunch.
However, a 5-0 hammering of Volos NFC in the Greek Super League last time out has got to give them confidence, so they’ll expect to at least make Spurs work for the points.
The Lilywhites will no doubt still be hurting from their defeat to Liverpool in the final last year, especially since their last bit of silverware came back in 2008 in the League Cup.
However, they’ll be confident of cruising through this group with neither their hosts this week nor Red Star Belgrade likely to prove too challenging, while Bayern and them should fight it out for the top spot.

Spurs European Road Form
Mauricio Pochettino’s men have gone W4-D4-L2 from their 10 Champions League matches on the road since 2017/18, but with nine of those coming at either Dortmund, Real Madrid, Juventus, Inter, PSV, Barcelona, Man City or Ajax, it’s hardly a bad record.
In fact, their only fixture with second rate opposition came against Apoel Nicosia, which they went on to win 3-0 and we’d be surprised if they can’t get off to a good start in this group.
Spurs To Win
By contrast, the hosts were last in Europe’s top tier competition back in 2017/18, when they proceeded to lose five of their six winless group games, including a defeat to Sporting CP at home in the opening fixture.
Moreover, when hosting Premier League sides in Europe, Greek teams have lost all three of their group stage matches since 2014/15 and we can’t see this one going any other way.
Son Heung-Min To Score Anytime
Son Heung-min got his first goal of the 2019/20 campaign on Saturday and in fact followed it up just 13 minutes later with another.
That man of the match performance should put him in good stead for this next fixture and given he’s netted four times across his last six Champions League outings, including three against a superb Man City defence in the quarters last term, this Greek outfit shouldn’t be too hard for him to break down.
