Experience will be important here. Previous game ended 1-1, so Olympiakos must win to qualify.

Olympiacos is above Maccabi. They have a better squad, more quality and the most important: much more experience. Olympiacos have been involved in some big European contests in recent times, making it to the last 16 in two of the last three instalments of the Europa League and they are certainly the more hardened of these two sides in terms of European experience. That experience could prove crucial on Wednesday in what is likely to be an edgy game, played in front of a partisan Greek crowd.

Only Nikola Cumic is out due to an injury. In the transfer market, they Have retained key attackers Youssef El-Arabi and Tiquinho and will depend on them to produce the goods. Sime Vrsaljko, Pipa, Aboubakar Kamara and Philip Zinckernagel are the strongest reinforcements of Olympiacos this summer and all four are expected to be on the field from the first minute in this match.

On the other hand, Maccabi were more dominant in the previous game, but I think it was due to an unperforming performance of Olympiacos, who should improve at home. Maccabi has very few experience in Europe, as shown in the previous game where in spite of the dominance, they had to wait until the 92' minute to score the equalizer to the early goal by Olympiakos at 7’. The Greens had previously lost the Israeli Super Cup on penalties to Hapoel Be'er Sheva after suffering back-to-back 1-0 defeats in pre-season against Mechelen and Vitesse.

Mahmoud Jaber, Raz Meir and Ben Sahar are all recuperating from injuries and will sit out Wednesday’s game.

The reigning Greek champions are fancied to get the job done in the second leg of this Champions League qualification tie. Being at home in the second leg is a big advantage, and I’m expecting a better performance by Olympiakos showing that they are class above and proving their experience in this kind of games.

Olympiacos will have a lot more freedom at home and on paper they look superior stronger. Kosta Manolas, Yan M'Vila, Sime Vrsaljko, Soares are all expected to hav2 big games whilst Philip Zinckernagel has just had a good season helping Forest get to the Premier League.

经验在这里很重要。之前的比赛以1比1结束，所以奥林匹亚科斯必须赢球才能出线。

奥林匹亚科斯在马卡比之上。他们有一个更好的阵容，更有质量，最重要的是:更多的经验。奥林匹亚科斯最近参加了一些重要的欧洲赛事，在欧洲联赛的三届比赛中有两届进入16强，在欧洲比赛经验方面，他们无疑是这两支球队中更有经验的。周三的比赛可能是一场激烈的比赛，在希腊的一群党派人士面前，这种经验可能被证明是至关重要的。

只有尼古拉·库米奇因伤缺阵。在转会市场上，他们已经留住了关键的攻击手阿拉比和蒂基尼奥，他们将依靠这两名球员来取得成功。弗尔萨尔科、琵琶、卡马拉和津克内格尔是今夏奥林匹亚科斯最强的援军，这四人都有望在本场比赛的第一分钟就上场。

另一方面，马卡比在前一场比赛中更有统治力，但我认为这是由于奥林匹亚科斯的不佳表现，他们应该在主场提高。马卡比在欧战中鲜有经验，正如在上一场比赛中所显示的那样，尽管他们占据着统治地位，但他们不得不等到92分钟才在7分的时候将奥林匹亚科斯的进球扳平。此前，在以色列超级杯上，绿军曾在季前赛中连续0 - 1输给梅赫伦和维特斯，最终在点球大战中输给了舍瓦。

马哈茂德·贾比尔、拉兹·梅尔和本·萨哈尔都在养伤，将缺席周三的比赛。

希腊卫冕冠军希望在这场欧冠资格赛的次回合比赛中完成这项任务。在第二回合的比赛中主场作战是一个很大的优势，我期待奥林匹亚科斯有更好的表现，显示他们的水平，并证明他们在这类比赛中的经验。

奥林匹亚科斯在主场会有更多的自由，理论上他们看起来更强大。马诺拉斯、姆维拉、弗萨尔科和苏亚雷斯都有望迎来重要比赛，而菲利普·津克内格尔刚刚在一个不错的赛季帮助森林队进入英超。
