Olympiacos quickly moved on from that result as they claimed a 1-0 win over Volos on their return to the Greek Super League last time out. They head into Thursday’s game on a run of five wins from their last six games in all competitions and will look to keep this fine run going and overturn their first-leg deficit.
With three wins and three defeats, they clinched qualification with a game to spare, and are now making a joint-record ninth appearance in the competition’s knockout phase. Indeed, they are aiming to reach the last 16 for the fifth time – and for the third successive season.

Having picked up a 2-1 lead in the first leg back in Italy, Atalanta will head into the game seeking to wrap up the tie and progress to the round of 16. Twenty-nine-year-old defender Berat Djimsiti put on a clinic as he scored a second-half brace to hand Atalanta a 2-1 comeback win in the first leg.
Most recently, a late implosion against 10-man Fiorentina saw them exit the Coppa Italia and consigned them to a fourth successive match without victory, and Atalanta has now managed just three wins from 13 home games in the league following Sunday night’s Serie A draw with fellow top-four contenders Juventus.
Musso; Djimsiti, Demiral, Toloi; Hateboer, De Roon, Freuler, Zappacosta; Malinovskyi, Boga; Muriel
While impressively disciplined in their draw with Juventus, another failure to pick up maximum points will inevitably knock confidence in an ailing Atalanta squad, which has lost direction since the turn of the year.
Olympiacos have turned their home turf into a fortress over the last two months, winning each of their last 10 home games since November. We predict they will continue their fine home form and see off an injury-hit Atalanta side.
Atalanta BC 2-1 Olympiacos, predicted by us.
