Champions League
Arsenal and Olympiacos have had 12 H2H matches, and the teams are completely even with six victories each. Interestingly, games between these two sides never ended in a draw. The last matches were played in 2021 in the Europa League, in the 1/8 final, when Arsenal won 3-2 on aggregate score.
Arsenal team overview
Arsenal are one of the strongest teams in Europe right now. They started the Champions League season a few weeks ago with a convincing 2-0 victory in Bilbao. In the Premier League, Arsenal are playing well too, as they are second in the standings, with two points fewer than Liverpool. Mikel Arteta's team is on a run of five games without defeat. Last weekend, they won 2-1 on the road against Newcastle. The home side had a lead for most of the match, but the guests scored two goals late and secured another victory.
Arsenal's head coach, Mikel Arteta, was ecstatic after a hard victory against Newcastle over the weekend. He said, "To win in the manner that we have done it, wow, what a feeling! Football is about emotion and going through things, and today we had a beautiful one at the end of the match."
Emotions are surely a big part of football, and Arsenal will head to the game against Olympiacos with a lot of confidence.
Arsenal have some problems with missing players. They will be without Gabriel Jesus, Pedro Hincapie, and Noni Madueke on Wednesday night.

Olympiacos team overview
Before the season started, Olympiacos hoped to sneak among the top 24 teams and play in the knockout phase, but they started the Champions League with only a 0-0 draw at home against Pafos. In the Greek national league, Olympiacos is at the top of the standings with 13 points from five matches, but in some ties, they expected more. One of the games like that was from last weekend, when Jose Luis Mendilibar's team won 3-2 at home against Levadiakos.
Olympiacos didn't impress against Levadiakos, but the head coach Mendilibar was pleased with how his team reacted. He said, "Football consists of mistakes and successes; you can't play 90 minutes without making mistakes, and mistakes happen. What we kept was the reaction from our team, and whenever we conceded a goal, we had the answer. As long as we have this ability to react, we move forward."
Roman Yaremchuk is injured and will not play on Wednesday night in London, while Konstantinos Angelakis is questionable.
