Atromitos and Olympiacos will battle for three points in a Greek Super League round 19 clash on Sunday (January 19th). The game will be played at Peristeri Stadium.
The home side are coming into the game on the back of a 3-0 away win over Lamia last weekend. Carlitos and Dimitrios Kalosmakis scored to put them two goals up at the break. The former completed his brace six minutes into the second half.
Olympiacos, meanwhile, shared the spoils in a 1-1 draw away to arch-rivals Panathinaikos in the first leg of their Greek Cup quarterfinal tie. Filip Djuricic gave the Shamrock the lead in the 51st minute while Roman Yaremchuk drew the game level with 15 minutes left on the clock.
The Red-Whites will shift their attention to the league scene, where their last game saw them claim a 2-1 home win over Aris.
The victory left them at the summit of the standings, having garnered 40 points from 18 games. Atromitos are ninth on 22 points.
Atromitos ended their seven-game winless run with their victory last weekend and will be looking to build on this. The last three head-to-head games they have hosted have ended in draws.
Olympiacos are well on course to win a first league title in three years and hold a three-point advantage at the summit. Jose Luis Mendilibar's side are fresh off a feisty 'derby of the eternal enemies' and have the best away record in the league, having conceded just six goals in nine games on their travels.
We are backing the visiting side to claim a routine victory in addition to a clean sheet.
Prediction: Atromitos 0-2 Olympiacos
Tip 1 - Olympiacos to win
Tip 2 - Both teams to score: No
Tip 3 - Under 2.5 goals
