Champions League qualification continues on Tuesday evening with NEC Nijmegen playing host to Olympiacos at Goffertstadion. The first leg of this tie ended goalless last week, and our prediction is that this will be another low-scoring outcome.
NEC Nijmegen enjoyed their best-ever finish to an Eredivisie season in 2025-26, finishing in third place, and they are now hoping to qualify for the Champions League for the first time.
While Enige Echte would have been pleased with their clean sheet in the first leg of this tie, they were fairly wasteful in attack, having recorded 13 shots at goal and 1.36 xG but failing to score.
The hosts kicked off their domestic season poorly, losing 2-1 to Telstar at the weekend. However, they have only lost one of their last seven competitive home games.
Meanwhile, Olympiacos finished in 18th place in the League Phase of the UCL last season with 11 points before bowing out of the competition 2-0 on aggregate to Bayer Leverkusen in the Playoffs.
Despite having home advantage last week, Thrylos only managed five shots on goal, recorded just 0.59 xG, and failed to create a single big chance across the 90 in Piraeus.
The visitors are now winless in their last four matches in all competitions, having lost their final three pre-season matches against Ajax, Antwerp and AZ Alkmaar.

Our NEC Nijmegen vs Olympiacos Prediction
After a remarkable domestic season in 2025-26, NEC Nijmegen did very well to leave Piraeus with a clean sheet, and they will fancy their chances of progressing to the next round on their home patch this week.
Olympiacos are the marginal favourites in this clash, but their attacking output has been far from impressive recently, as we saw in the first leg where they failed to carve out a single big chance across the 90. Our NEC Nijmegen vs Olympiacos prediction is under 2.5 goals.
