Manchester City is welcoming Olympiacos to Etihad Stadium in round 3 in the UEFA Champions League.
Manchester City is final playing in good, consistent form, and they haven’t lost any of their last 7 games. Manchester City has also won their most recent Premier League game against Sheffield United on the road. The final score of that match was 0-1. Manchester City has been outstanding in the Champions League with 2 wins, 6 scored goals, and only 1 conceded goal. Manchester City is at the top of their group, and they will stay there. In their last Champions League game against Marseille on the road, City has had 65% of ball possession, 4 shots on goal, 5 corner kicks, 3 big chances created, and a high 92% of the correct passes. Manchester City was the better team in this game, and they have deservedly won this game 0-3. Gundogan and Torres have each scored 2 goals for City in the Champions League, while Aguero and Sterling added 1 goal each. Jesus, Aguero, and Sandler are injured, and they will miss this game. City is one of the best teams in Europe, and once they get going, they are extremely hard to stop, and they are finally going.
Olympiacos is the best team in Greece, and even though they are in second place in the Greek Super League, it’s only a matter of time before they take over the top. Olympiacos is the best team overall in the Super League with 12 scored goals, and only 1 conceded a goal in 5 games. In the Champions League, Olympiacos is in 3rd place in their group with 1 win, and 1 loss. Hassan has scored 1 goal for Olympiacos in the Champions League, and he is their only goalscorer. Ba is the only injured player for Olympiacos as of right now. Olympiacos was playing against Porto on the road in their last Champions League game, and they have had 57% of ball possession, 4 shots on goal, 9 corner kicks, 2 big chances created, and a decent 82% of the correct passes. Despite being a slightly better team in this game, Olympiacos has conceded 1 goal in each half, and they have won this game 2-0. Olympiacos is a decent team, and they will be fighting for that second place in this Champions League group, and they certainly have the quality to be on that spot.
Manchester City is the better team here, with more depth, better game style, and they are playing at home. Manchester City is coming into this game as a huge favorite, and deservedly so. I think this will be a game where City will dominate the possession, and they will create a tone of chances, and score a few goals as well.
