21 Oct
Summary

Olympiacos is poised to maintain its winning momentum by fielding an unchanged lineup against Sparta Praha in the UEFA Europa League. Head coach Imanol Alguacil aims to secure a crucial three points that would significantly bolster the team's chances of advancing to the Round of 16.
The manager is pleased with recent training sessions, likely favoring a squad composition that reflects the team's successful performances in previous matches. This approach may impact the starting opportunities for players like Armando Gonzalez, who has seen limited starts recently.
Meanwhile, Leon Bailey, recently signed from Aston Villa, is progressing well from injury and could be in contention for a starting role, potentially replacing Gelson Martins or Jota Silva. However, Kostas Fortounis has been ruled out due to a minor injury. The defense is expected to remain consistent, with Remo Freuler and Santiago Hezze forming the midfield pairing.
