Milan's record over the same period is more mixed: eight wins, six draws and six losses. They've beaten Bournemouth 3-0 away in the Europa League, but also shipped four without reply at Red Bull Salzburg, and lost their most recent Serie A outing at Udinese.

Olympiakos look the more consistent side on recent evidence, though Milan have shown they can trouble good opposition too.

Comparative Team Statistics: Olympiakos Piraeus vs AC Milan

What history tells us

The two sides have only met twice before, both in the Europa League group stage back in 2018. Each team won their own home leg 3-1, so there's no pattern of one side dominating the fixture.

Europa League league phase standings

With two games played in this season's league phase, Olympiakos sit tenth with six points from two wins. Milan are down in sixteenth with three points, having split their two matches so far. It's an early snapshot, but Olympiakos currently hold the healthier position.

Milan will want a result here to avoid falling further back in the group.

How this one could play out

Olympiakos have generally been solid in Europe this season, beating Sparta Praha at home and only narrowly missing out away to Marseille. Milan, by contrast, have alternated between big away performances, like the win at Bournemouth, and poor ones, like the defeat at Salzburg.

With the match still a month away from this form snapshot, neither side's current run is guaranteed to carry through to kickoff. But based on what we've seen, Olympiakos' home record in this competition looks like the more reliable factor right now.
