Marius stayed at Renti, and now he has the edge
Marius stayed at Renti through the international break. That is the whole story, and it puts him in front for a starting spot against Panathinaikos on Sunday, October 11 at 20:00 CEST (4).
Your next match is that one. Olympiacos are fifth on 10 points after five games, and Panathinaikos come to Piraeus after the break.

Retso interest, and Marinakis holds the answer
There is movement around Panagiotis Retsos. Clubs from abroad are looking at him, the figure is around €10m, and Vangelis Marinakis makes the call (10). Retsos has become one of Olympiacos's fixed points, and that is exactly why the price is not cheap (10).
Marseille away comes after the derby
Four days after Panathinaikos, it is Marseille away in the Europa League on Thursday, October 15 at 21:00 CEST. Olympiacos won 2–1 at home against Jagiellonia Bialystok in their last European outing (Europa League, Sep 16), and the trip to France is the harder half of this stretch.
Where you stand
Ten points from five, fifth in the Super League. The last two league games were wins: Asteras Tripoli 0–1 Olympiacos on August 30, then Levadiakos 0–1 Olympiacos on September 20. The home loss to OFI CRETE, 0–1 on September 12, is the one that still stings.
