Olympiakos-West Ham: In his “castle” to enter the qualification zone!

He wants to enter the qualification stage Olympic! The “red and white” welcome her West Ham in their castle for the 3rd matchday of his groups Europa League (7:45 p.m., bwinSPORT FM, www.sportfm.gr, Cosmote Sport) and are looking for their first win, so they can stay within reach of qualifying for the next phase.

With a possible victory of the Piraeus to a large extent ensure at least their presence in Europe from the new year, as long as the Freiburg at the same time leave Serbia with a victory against Batska Topola.

THE Olympic comes from the episodic derby with Panathinaikos in “G. Karaiskakis” which was never completed due to the firecracker that fell next to Huancar. It has rhythm, but also freshness since the game took place last Sunday and lasted a mere 50 minutes. With the “red and whites” at the same time coming from two negative results in Europe: In the premiere they were defeated 3-2 at home by Freiburgwhile in the 2nd matchday they drew with a score of 2-2 in Serbia against Batska Topola, in a match they were leading 2-0. Somehow, today’s game takes on the form of an early final, since a three point will revive the psychology and hopes of Piraeus.

THE Diego Martinez cannot count on the services of the injured Nicolas Freire and the suspended Andreas Doe, while Julien Biancon is not on the European list. Which means that Jackson Porosso will take the starting jersey for the first time this year in an official match, playing alongside Panagiotis Retsos in the stoppers. At the same time, there is a wait for whether Santiago Ese will be able to start in the starting lineup!

THE West Ham on the other hand, she has done 2/2 in the group and is looking for the three points that will actually put her with a leg and a half in the next phase. In the group premiere, they prevailed 3-1 with an upset of Bacska Topola, while in the second match they beat Freiburg in Germany 2-1. In the Premier League, however, it comes from two negative results, the most recent being the defeat by Aston Villa 4-1 last Sunday.

There are no serious problems for Londoners, while o David Moyes he will probably rotate as he usually does to give his footballers a breather in view of the competitions (domestic and European) he participates in.
