Bayer Leverkusen have a huge historical omen conspiring against them as they bid to overcome an Olympiacos side bidding to make history in this UEFA Champions League (UCL) knockout play-off first leg. After that loss last month, Bayer Leverkusen still haven’t won away to Greek opposition since 1993 (D2, L2), with both of those defeats coming against Olympiacos. Bayer Leverkusen conceded exactly once in four of their last five away games.

A late flurry of form was enough to see Olympiacos sneak into the top 24 of the league phase, with the Greek side winning each of their last three games to reach the UCL knockouts for the first time since 2013/14. History now beckons for Olympiacos, who could win four European Cup/UCL main-draw games in a row for the first time in their history, with this their 165th such game. Recent form is hardly indicative of a side set to make history, as the Red-Whites have won just once since beating Ajax on matchday eight (D2, L1), and although that’s seen them slip off the title pace in the Greek Super League, winning the home leg in six of their last seven European ties (L1) should have them expecting better here.

It’s taken a while for Bayer Leverkusen to hit their stride this season, but they finally look to be hitting top gear after their 4-0 win against St. Pauli on Saturday stretched their impressive recent run to five wins from six games (D1). It’s just as well they have momentum behind them, as they boast the worst win percentage (11%) of any team to ever play at least ten UCL knockout games, with Bayer Leverkusen winning just two of their 19 games (D4, L13). A rotten record across their last 42 UCL away games (W7, D12, L23) will hardly raise hopes of improving upon that negative record here, particularly given their last European away game ended in a 2-0 defeat on this ground in January.

Eleven of Olympiacos’ last 14 games featured under 2.5 goals inside 90 minutes. None of Olympiacos’ last four home matches saw both teams score. Only three sides committed fewer fouls in the league phase than Bayer Leverkusen (71).

Olympiacos’ Gelson Martins could be out to have the first say on proceedings after opening the scoring with four of his five goals this term. Alejandro Grimaldo has netted in three of Bayer Leverkusen’s last four UCL outings and his last three goals served to close the scoring.

Mehdi Taremi missed Olympiacos’ weekend game along with Francisco Ortega. Bayer Leverkusen remain without first-choice keeper Mark Flekken.
