Real Madrid vs Olympiacos Prediction
Real Madrid is a squad with tremendous attacking potential, but Olympiacos proved against Barcelona in the quarterfinals that a strong defence can overcome a strong offence. The perimeter players for Olympiacos will have hope if they can make their shots.
Real Madrid, on the other hand, is the favourite because of their better record against them, but it looks like a dramatic series.
