Arsenal vs Olympiacos prediction

Mikel Arteta has been given a lot of money over the summer to ensure that the Gunners are fighting on all four fronts this season, and Arsenal started their UEFA Champions League campaign well, too, as they defeated Athletic Club by two goals to nil at San Mames with goals from Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli.

They now face an Olympiacos side that, under the management of Jose Luis Mendilibar, have performed well in Europe, such as winning the 2023/24 UEFA Europa Conference League. The Greek champions were, though, held to a frustrating goalless draw by Cypriot champions Pafos in Piraeus a couple of weeks ago.

Olympiacos, with Mendilibar, will seek to put men behind the ball and frustrate Arsenal, but the hosts should still ease themselves to a comfortable win in north London.
