Olympiacos chase 3/3 in the Europa League against Sparta Prague

Sparta Prague at home, and 3/3 is on the table

Sparta Prague at the Karaiskakis on Thursday, 21:00 CEST, Europa League league phase. You have won both of your games so far. A third straight win makes it three from three and keeps the home record clean (1).

The form going in is five wins from five. Jagiellonia Bialystok 2–1 at home, Levadiakos 0–1 away, Panathinaikos 1–0 at home, Marseille 0–1 in France, Panetolikos 0–2 away. Second in the Super League on 16 points from seven games, +5 goal difference.

The line from the club ahead of this one is about the badge, not the table. "I cannot promise anything about the result to the fans, but that whoever wears the Olympiacos badge defends it in the best possible way" (1).

Kalamata come to Piraeus on Sunday, then it is Kifisia away on Saturday 31 October.

Your record against Czech teams is almost blank

Sparta Prague are close to a first for you (3). Olympiacos have faced exactly one Czech side in European competition.

That was Viktoria Plzen in the 2019 Champions League qualifiers under Pedro Martins. It went 0–0 away and 4–0 at home on 30 July, with Guilherme, Guerrero and Semedo in that squad (3).

One tie, one win, one clean sheet. That is the whole book on Czech opposition.
