Barcelona and Olympiakos Renew Champions League Rivalry in High-Stakes Clash

On October 21st, 2025, Barcelona and Olympiakos will face off in a highly anticipated UEFA Champions League group stage match. This will be the third meeting between the two clubs, with Barcelona having won 3-1 at home and drawn 0-0 away in their previous encounters during the 2017-18 season.

Olympiakos have a daunting task ahead of them, as the Greek side have never won away to a Spanish team in European competition, losing 14 of their 16 previous matches (D2). No Greek team has ever won away to a Spanish opponent in the Champions League, with 17 of the previous 21 attempts ending in defeat (D4).

Barcelona, on the other hand, will be looking to extend their impressive scoring run in the Champions League. The Catalan giants have scored at least one goal in each of their last 22 matches in the competition, a streak they will be keen to continue. However, they were recently beaten by Paris Saint-Germain in their previous Champions League outing, and will be determined to bounce back with a strong performance at home.

Olympiakos are one of only two teams yet to score a goal in this season's Champions League, having attempted 28 shots without success so far. Their right-sided attacking play has been their most productive, with 62.5% of their chances created coming from that area of the pitch.

As the two teams prepare to lock horns, the stage is set for an intriguing clash between the Spanish giants and the Greek underdogs, with both sides seeking to make their mark in the Champions League.
