This Europa League fixture brings Olympiacos F.C. up against Sparta Praha, two teams that have never been in the same table before. A continental cup game is therefore measured by the condition of the teams on the day rather than by anyone's league position. Olympiacos F.C. come in on a run of five straight wins in all competitions, and in their own league they have conceded only two goals in seven matches. The defence is thus the stronghold that lets the team dare to open up and attack. Sparta Praha are also unbeaten in five in a row, but they have drawn their last two and have just finished with a 0-0 draw in the league. Olympiacos F.C.'s latest match was a 2-0 league win, while Sparta Praha have just drawn 0-0 as well. The two teams therefore arrive in condition closer to each other than their reputations suggest. If Olympiacos F.C. get the first goal from their home game, the match should open up even more for the hosts to push on, because Sparta Praha will have to step up and chase the game, and that is the moment the game will be decided by the goal difference, not just by who scores first.
