On Tuesday evening, the UEFA Champions League qualifiers continue, and we've reached the business end. Those still in the hunt can now smell those lucrative eight games, but they're not there yet. In the Greek city of Piraeus, Olympiacos and Nijmegen will meet. Ahead of their trip to the Netherlands next week, the hosts will be hoping to bag an advantage, though defeating a team that somewhat successfully deployed an interpretation of 'Total Football' last term won't be easy.
Going by the early lines, 'Both Teams to Score' catches the eye as a viable betting option. Both teams come into this game having scored regular pre-season goals, but neither side has done much to keep teams quiet, which tells us that it might not be defenses on top in the suburbs of Athens on Tuesday. Moreover, with the hosts regularly scoring and conceding in competitive away games, it's far from difficult to see both teams enjoying themselves in the final third.

Our Olympiacos vs NEC Nijmegen Prediction
At this stage of the season, it's not easy to know what to expect from two teams in this position, but what we do know is that both teams will be hungry for UCL soccer. The hosts will also be super keen to make use of their home advantage, and given their promising scoring record at home, coupled with the fact that the visitors keep very few clean sheets away from home, we should see José Luis Mendilibar's men do some damage.
Based on what we've seen from the pair in pre-season, we probably shouldn't hope to see a home clean sheet, though, especially as the Nijmegen boys have a strong offensive record on the road, scoring in every competitive away game that they've played since November 2025.
