Champions League - Chelsea v Olympiakos

Chelsea V Olympiakos

Chelsea look to be good things here. Greek sides traditionally struggle away from home and playing Chelsea at Stamford Bridge is a big ask. Add in that Chelsea are finally coming to form and confidence is high after that 4 – 0 drubbing of West Ham at the weekend.

Chelsea don’t tend to give teams big beatings but here they may have to. An away goal may wreck their chances and holding a 1 – 0 lead may be dodgy. This leads me to believe that they will go out and try to get at least 2 goals or 3 just in case their usually dependable defence will be breached.

Olympiakos are in poor condition at the moment. 4 points off the top of the league and their away form is not as impressive as it has been in the past. They are struggling to create any real chances of note and to break down the Chelsea rearguard they will need to create something special.

Verdict

I just can’t see Chelsea conceding tonight and cannot see past a comfortable win. As I mentioned before a 1 – 0 lead is dodgy and they will strive to kill off this game as early as possible. I think Chelsea will be there or thereabouts come final time and can win comfortably tonight.
