The road to reviving their horrid season is a long one for Arsenal but their ardent supporters will be pleased that the club has finally started showing signs of life. Unbeaten in 2020, it’s safe to say that the side from London has finally started overhauling its underachieving performances to embark on the route to redemption.
The biggest testament of Arsenal’s rejuvenation came at the weekend with the side pummelling Newcastle United 4-0. It was not only the win but rather the overwhelming manner in which it came about which is bound to have instilled much lost elusive confidence in the ranks of the squad as it strives to keep making massive strides in the league.
Also, what will please the side is the timing of the win with it coming right before their crucial Europa League encounter slated for today. Taking on a hostile Olympiacos outfit who’ll be buoyed infront of their rapturous supporters, Arsenal know things will be far from straightforward for them when they step out to take on the Greece Super League leaders.
OLY Vs ARS Probable Winner
With both these sides in rampant form with either unbeaten in their last five ties and having won their most recent contest 4-0, we are going to be in for crackling contest today. The margins for a win will be extremely small with us envisioning this to end in a draw with neither side giving away anything to their opponents.

OLY Vs ARS Dream11 Goal-Keeper
Across the course of the group stage encounters of the Europa League, Emiliano Martinez showed why he’s such a solid goal-keeper. The Arsenal shot stopper made the most of the chances accorded to him with stupendous displays, ones which see us make him our man n between the sticks for this one.
OLY Vs ARS Dream11 Defenders
Although Arsenal did manage to hit 4 goals past their opponents the last time around, things are not going to be so simple for them today. They are up against an outfit which has been succulent in its home stadium, a side Arsenal will be looking to contain from scoring rater than focus on piling on the goals themselves.
With the visiting unit set to approach this fixture extremely tentatively, the likelihood of Olympiacos keeping a cleansheet today is massively high which sees us move in for both Konstantinos Tsimikas and Ousseynou Ba for the encounter from their setup. Elsewhere, Ainsley Maitland-Niles comes into our team from Arsenal with the player having an affinity to provide ample support to the side’s attacking soirees.
OLY Vs ARS Dream11 Midfielders
With 6 goals and 7 assists in his kitty this season, we’ll be beginning this ambit of our Dream 11 unit with pick of Mathieu Valbuena from Olympiacos for this encounter. Giorgos Masouras joins up with the player having piled on the 5 goals and 2 assists this term along with the upbeat Mady Camara as we opt for a trio of picks from the side for the clash.
From Arsenal meanwhile, both Nicholas Pepe and Dani Ceballos flourished at the weekend to see us opt for both of them for this clash. Pepe came up with the one goal and one assist in that encounter whilst Cabellos was pivotal to Arsenal’s transition of the ball in midfield, two players who’ll determine if Arsenal are able to dictate the play today.
OLY Vs ARS Dream11 Strikers
Olympiacos’ top scorer with 17 goals and 6 assists, Youssef El Arabia was a regulation selection for us for this upcoming contest. From Arsenal meanwhile we are getting Gabriel Martinelli after the player torched his way to enigmatic displays in the group stages to make people stand up and take notice of him.
Captain And Vice-Captain
With three goals in the Champions League, Youssef comes in as our side’s captain while Masouras is our vice-captain.
Dream 11 Team
