Looking to salvage something in terms of their European presence, Olympiacos are playing against Freiburg for the 5th round of their groups Europa League one of his last, if not the last, works.

The “red-whites” want a better or, in the worst case, the same result as “Nantes”, which at the same time will welcome Karabakh, in order to stay in pursuit of 3rd place and next Thursday in Faliro against the French, give … the final .

A scenario that is not as easy to test as it seems. And this is because the Germans are in first place and with one foot in “16”, but mathematically they did not provide a direct presence in knockouts, which means they also want to at least not lose. At the same time, Nantes, which is not doing well in the French league, is also looking for its … redemption through Europe, so, in fact, it puts its surrender against the Azerbaijanis.

If the French team achieves a better result than the Red-Whites tonight, then the Greek team is excluded from Europe.

Mitchell, in his usual press conference, revealed how he would tackle Freiburg, who are in a period of amazing form, as evidenced by their position in the Bundesliga. “I always play to win, that’s what I’m going to do now,” said the Spanish coach of Olympiacos and added: “We know the level of the opponent. We also know our own needs. The enemy will do what he knows. But we also bet a lot on how we will play tomorrow. It won’t be an easy game. We have an idea how we’re going to handle this and we really have high hopes for us.”

Given the absence, mainly in defense, it is highly likely that Embilla will play a stopper alongside Doi, while in attack the Spaniard has shown that he relies more on El Araby at the top and Gary Rodriguez at one end. Group standings: Freiburg 12, Karabakh 7, Nantes 3, Olympiacos 1.
