Olympiacos have gained plenty of experience of facing English opponents in Europe in recent years and should give Arsenal a good test.
They knocked the Gunners out of the Europa League last season before being edged out by Wolves and have also faced Manchester City, Tottenham and Burnley over the past few seasons.
The Greek outfit have generally performed with credit and 5/6 for them to avoid defeat here is our first Olympiacos vs Arsenal prediction.
A Look At Olympiacos’ Betting Odds
Olympiacos finished third behind City and Porto in their Champions League pool this term, only losing 1-0 at home to the Blues.
Pedro Martins then steered his side to a narrow success over PSV in this tournament, prevailing 4-2 in Greece before a 2-1 defeat in Holland.
On the domestic front, they are an impressive 16 points clear at the summit, with 20 wins and four draws from 25 outings.
Defender Sokratis Papastathopoulos could come up against his former club just three months after being let go for free.
Ex-Watford full-back Jose Holebas is another familiar face in a side also blessed with plenty of attacking talent.
Club stalwart Kostas Fortounis is once again contributing goals from midfield, while Morocco striker Youssef El Arabi has been on fire up front.
Looking at the Olympiacos vs Arsenal odds, we like 7/2 for a score draw at Stadio Georgios Karaiskakis.
A Look At Arsenal’s Betting Odds
Admittedly, Arsenal do have fond memories of playing at this venue, where they won 1-0 last term before going down 2-1 after extra-time in London to crash out.
The Gunners also beat Benfica 3-2 in Piraeus just last month to prevail 4-3 on aggregate in the round of 32.
Mikel Arteta was in great spirits after his side followed up that victory with a 3-1 Premier League triumph at Leicester.

However, Saturday’s domestic 1-1 draw at Burnley was a bit of a letdown, with the Clarets clinging on for a point despite sustained late pressure.
“In the second half, Burnley were really direct and stretched the structure so much it becomes an open game,” said Arteta.
“We didn’t have any composure on the ball or understanding and it becomes difficult to play. That is when you lose the belief that we could win.
“The reaction in the last 15 minutes was the answer, but it wasn’t enough to win the game.”
Arteta has tended to field strong line-ups in Europa League matches, but Sunday’s derby clash with Spurs could just be a distraction this time.
The Gunners may be the better team on paper, but we’re taking 6/1 for a 1-1 draw to complete our Olympiacos vs Arsenal betting tips.

Arsenal will be looking to gain revenge over Olympiacos when the two sides meet for the first leg of their Europa League Round of 16 tie in Piraeus on Thursday, March 11.
The Greek champions knocked the Gunners out of the Europa League in the Round of 32 last season, although it feels like Mikel Arteta’s men have come a long way since way.

I share my Olympiacos vs. Arsenal prediction and betting pick below. But first, let’s take a look at the bookmakers’ odds.
10bet views Arsenal (1.90) as the favorite to win the first leg. But as you can see, the price for the away victory is by no means small here.
In my eyes, the odds for both the draw (3.40) and the home win seem fairly generous. After all, Olympiacos (4.00) has a reputation for producing shock results on home soil in European competition.
Olympiacos vs. Arsenal Preview
Olympiacos began the 2020/21 season in the Champions League and kicked off their campaign with a win over Marseille. But after losing their subsequent five games, Pedro Martins’ side ended up finishing ten points behind second-place Porto in Group C.
Having dropped down into the Europa League, Thrylos clinched a 5-4 aggregate victory against PSV Eindhoven in the Round of 32, before drawing Arsenal in the last 16.
As usual, Martins’ men are totally dominating that Greek Super League this term. In fact, they have only lost one of their 25 league matches, with 20 wins putting them 16 points clear at the top of the table.
It is also worth pointing out that Olympiacos has netted 61 goals along the way and has only conceded 12. Still, let’s not forget that the Greek Super League is nowhere near the level of the Europa League Round of 16.
The Greek champs can take confidence from the fact that they eliminated Arsenal in the Round of 32 last season, yet they aren’t likely to have it all their own way this time around.

It’s safe to say that Arsenal made light work of their Group B opponents earlier in the campaign. I mean, Molde, Rapid Vienna, and Dundalk were never going to cause the EPL side too many problems. But the Gunners still had to get the job done.
After scoring 20 goals and conceding just five, Arteta’s men qualified for the knockout phase with maximum points, netting over 2.5 goals in all but one of their six group games.
The Londoners were then faced with a serious test of their ability in the Round of 32, but they managed to edge out Portuguese giant Benfica, winning 4-3 on aggregate.
The Gunners’ domestic struggles have kept them battling in mid-table for much of the season. But having taken seven points from their previous four matches, the club could make a late charge for the European place.
Thankfully, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang seems to have rediscovered his touch. The forward has bagged four goals in his last four EPL outings and will now be hoping to carry his new-found form onto the European stage.
- Arsenal to Win

It feels like Arteta’s men have grown as a team since the last time they faced Olympiacos. Yes, their current Premier League position may not reflect that. But there is no denying that Arsenal is in a better place this time around.
Olympiacos’ customary domestic domination rolls on this season, but the Greek side has always struggled to make an impact in Europe. For that reason, I’m backing Arsenal to win the first leg on Thursday.
