Olympiacos return to Piraeus needing a statement performance in their push for a playoff berth. As both Olympiacos and Bayer Leverkusen will adopt an attack-minded approach in Tuesday's game, our prediction leans toward a 2-2 draw. Despite missing Biel, Bakoulas, Paschalakis, and Pirola, the core of Jose Luis Mendilibar’s team remains intact, and the Greeks have produced strong European form overall, averaging 2.00 points per game. Their home record is less dominant, however, with just 1.40 PPG and 1.40 goals conceded at Karaiskakis. Still, their attacking production is elite at Champions League level, generating 2.68 expected goals at home and scoring 2.60 goals per match, while keeping 40% clean sheets.
Leverkusen arrive with defensive concerns, as star centre-back Edmond Tapsoba remains unavailable following AFCON duty and striker Nathan Tella stays sidelined. Their overall form sits at 1.60 PPG, but they’ve been more effective away from home, taking 2.00 PPG and conceding just 0.83 goals on their travels. Even with reduced attacking efficiency – 1.50 goals per game and 1.19 expected goals away – Kasper Hjumland's side remain tactically sharp and dangerous in transitions.
As Olympiacos games average 4.0 goals at home and Leverkusen concede away at times, we are tempted to bet on Both Teams to Score, with additional value on Over 2.5 and Over 3.5 goals.
This Champions League match will be played on Tuesday 20 January 2026 at 20:00.
