UEFA Champions League prediction: Arsenal – Olympiacos (01-10-2025)

Champions League action returns to the Emirates Stadium this Wednesday as Arsenal host Olympiacos. The Gunners showed in the first round that they belong next to the European elite and will be looking to strengthen their position at the top of the table.

After beating Athletic Bilbao 2-0 on matchday one, Arsenal now have a chance to get their first victory of the season at their home ground.

A last-minute winner in their 2-1 victory over Newcastle on Sunday gave a significant boost to their Premier League title hopes and should also give the Gunners plenty of confidence, as they are now unbeaten in five matches across all competitions.

Olympiacos began their UCL campaign with a 0-0 draw against Cypriot debutants Pafos, continuing their struggles in front of goal — they’ve now scored just once in their last six UCL matches.

Arsenal were recently left without N. Madueke’s services and G.Jesus still remain on the sidelines. Olympiacos has a huge injury report, and it is official that the following players won’t play: R.Cabella, R.Vezo, R.Yeremchuk, Yazici, Gustavo Mancha.

Arsenal are clear favorites to win this game, but we do not necessarily expect many goals in this game. M. Arteta men always take pride in their defence and will seek to get another clean sheet. Arsenal rarely keeps pushing for more goals while having two or more goals lead and rather keeps dominating in the midfield while keeping possession.
