Manchester City have their third group win in their sights
As one of the favorites for the title, the experts have of course already expected that Manchester City will dominate Group C with FC Porto, Olympique Marseille and Olympiacos Piraeus. After two match days, the English lead the group confidently. They won the opening game against FC Porto at their home Etihad Stadium 3-1 and decided the game last week at Olympique Marseille with a 3-0 win.

With another victory against Olympiacos Piraeus next Tuesday, reaching the knockout phase is only a matter of form. This season, the "Citizens” really want to go further than in previous years. Under Pep Guardiola, they have never reached the semi-finals of the Champions League.

The English with unusual problems in the league
The English Premier League has not been able to dominate Manchester City as much this season as it has in previous seasons. After 6 match days, last season's runner-up has a record of 3 wins, 2 draws and one defeat. At the Etihad Stadium, in addition to the 1-0 victory over Arsenal FC, there was a clear 2-5 defeat against Leicester City. Above all, the offensive has so far not been as dangerous as in the past. In 6 games the "Citizens" scored 9 hits.
Free fixed tips
This will probably be related to the failures of the two center strikers Sergio Agüero and Gabriel Jesus. Pep Guardiola currently has no fit 9 in the squad. Winger Ferran Torres last played this role, but only with moderate success. Due to the unusually harmless offensive, there were a maximum of 2 hits in 4 of 6 Manchester City league games.

Piraeus in the clear outsider role against City
With 45 national championship titles, Olympiacos Piraeus is the record champion in the country and accordingly also a permanent guest in the Champions League. In the last 10 years the Greeks qualified 8 times for the largest European club competition. Most of the time, however, they fail there in the group stage. The last knockout round was in the 2013/2014 season. At that time they failed in the round of the last 16 clubs to Manchester United. With the championship title last season, Olympiacos is also represented in the premier class this year. In a group with Manchester City, Olympique Marseille and FC Porto, however, the Greek record champions are in the outsider role.
Free fixed tips
On matchday 1, the Greeks got over this and won 1-0 against Olympique Marseille. In the past week, however, the weakness of "Thrylos" came to light. Piraeus suffered a 2-0 defeat at FC Porto. With 3 points, the team of coach Pedro Martins is now in 3rd place in Group C and is tied with the Portuguese. Both group games were very poor in goals with a maximum of 2 goals.

Piraeus have been away without a win in 3 games
Olympiacos are currently in strong shape. If you ignore the defeat in the Champions League against FC Porto, then coach Pedro Martins' team has been unbeaten for 9 games. In the current national championship "Thrylos" is at the top of the table.

The Greek record champions won 4 out of 5 games there, plus a draw against PAS Giannina. The Greeks are very strong at home, but have not won 3 away games. The defense has shown itself to be extremely steadfast in the recent past. In the national Super League Olympiacos had to accept one goal. 4 out of 5 games ended there with under 3.5 goals.

Betting tip and forecast
Manchester City have a significantly better squad than Olympiacos and home rights on their side. Therefore, the English are the clear favorites next Tuesday. However, since the odds on a simple win are not very high, we prefer the tip on less than 3.5 goals. On the offensive, Manchester City is currently very weak with the failures of Sergio Agüero and Gabriel Jesus. In the Premier League, therefore, 4 out of 6 games ended with a maximum of 2 hits.

On the other hand, Olympiacos Piraeus is much weaker away from home than at home. Your defense had to accept one goal in the Greek league. In 4 out of 5 games there were fewer than 3.5 hits. Alternatively, we can imagine Manchester City winning to zero or not hitting both teams.

Especially since the shape is right. Last week there was a 3-0 win at Olympique Marseille, at the weekend the tough away game at Sheffield United was won 1-0. A patient, controlled performance against a compact opponent was enough for the three points. More spectacle could now be offered in the Champions League.

It is interesting that Manchester City have so far scored four out of six goals in the first two games from the 60th minute. When the opponent is played tired, the top club from the Premier League can strike easier because there are rooms. In addition, the quality that Manchester City can bring from the bank is extremely high. All of that speaks for a scoring game at the Etihad Stadium.

In terms of personnel, the situation has calmed down again. Agüero is still out, but with Gabriel Jesus there is very likely another striker available who can relieve the offensive game again.

Olympiacos Piraeus:
Olympiakos Piraeus, the industry leader in the Greek league for years, is already doing well again with 13 points from five games in the domestic league and is in the top group. The start into the Champions League was also okay. Marseille could be defeated, in Porto there was an expected defeat.
Free fixed predictions
Before the duel Manchester City vs. Olympiacos Piraeus, the odds give the Greeks little courage. You go to Manchester as a blatant outsider.
As mentioned, the individual differences are very high, so that there is no alternative match plan for the Greeks. Defensively you want to be very low and compact, you have to counterattack forward. The focus is on striker El-Arabi, who is Olympiakos’ best scorer in the league with five goals.
Free fixed picks
Statistics give the Greeks no hope either. Olympiacos have lost all of the last eight away games in the Champions League. The discrepancy between home and away games is enormous. This further strengthens the distribution of roles.
Free fixed predictions
In addition, the Greeks were very vulnerable defensively in Porto in the first away game of the group stage. That’s why before the game Manchester City vs. Olympiacos our tip that more than 3.5 goals will be scored. Whether that pays off can be tracked with the Livescore betting base.
Free fixed picks
After all, coach Pedro Martins can almost draw on the full. Apart from central defender Ba, all players are available to him.
