Olympiakos vs. Juventus: Key Issues That Will Shape Champions League Game

No other Champions League pool is as finely-poised after two rounds as the one in which Juventus find themselves. Group A sees all four sides level with three points each, no team able to establish themselves and take command as yet.


Matchday Three seems set to provide a key stage in the quest for qualification to the knockout rounds, with Atletico Madrid hosting Malmo and the Bianconeri traveling to Greece to face Olympiakos. They do so in relatively poor form, their recent results beginning to cause concern among fans of the Turin giants.


Their controversial win over Roma was immediately after their loss to the Spanish champions, while this past weekend saw Sassuolo hold Juve to a 1-1 draw. Having dropped points in the league for the first time this term, Massimiliano Allegri knows a win on Wednesday evening is now even more essential.


Over the following pages is a look at the key issues which may decide this encounter, with Juventus determined to leave Athens with all three points.
