Bayer Leverkusen travel to Greece on Wednesday evening for a tricky looking Champions League playoff first leg matchup against Olympiacos.
The German side have hit a rich vein of form over the last month, picking up five wins and a draw in their last six matches. The 4-0 weekend victory over St Pauli moved Kasper Hjulmand's side to within three points of the Bundesliga top four, as they attempt to secure a spot in next season's Champions League despite a terrible start to the campaign.
In contrast to Leverkusen's excellent recent results, Olympiacos have struggled mightily over the last few weeks. The drab 0-0 draw at Levadiakos on Saturday means that they have won just one of their last four Super League games, and now trail leaders AEK Athens by three points.

Our Olympiacos vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction
If this game had been scheduled a few weeks ago, we would have fancied Olympiacos to claim the win. However, Leverkusen have improved considerably over the last month, so we are backing them to pick up a vital first leg victory.
Olympiacos are always a tough nut to crack at home, but their recent results have been poor, so this looks like the ideal time to take them on.
Leverkusen are slight favorites for the win, but we still think their odds of 2.85 represent solid value.
Our prediction for Olympiacos vs Bayer Leverkusen is: Leverkusen to win.
