Olympiakos do not feel like favourites tonight. They have dealt with all sorts of heartbreaks throughout their history, and they see this as a great chance to exorcise those demons of the past and make the next big step as a European club.
We've seen it before when Olympiakos have faced Premier League teams who were in a tough spot. With Manchester United in 2014 when van Persie hit a hat trick, with Liverpool in 2004 when Liverpool scored three second half goals including that famous one from Steven Gerrard, with Arsenal in 2016 when Olivier Giroud got a hat-trick. Tonight is the next big step for them if they can beat Villa.
