Olympiacos vs. Real Madrid preview: Prediction, date, kick-off times, venue, how to watch Champions League match on DAZN
Watch the Champions League on DAZN - US, CA & NZ
The Champions League is back for the fifth round of matches in the league phase, and Real Madrid hope to return to winning ways in their visit to Olympiacos on Wednesday.
Los Blancos are always considered among the favourites to win the entire competition, and they looked well on their way in the current competition with three victories from their first three games. However, a 1-0 loss at Liverpool in Matchday 4 ended Real Madrid's perfect start to the league phase, dropping them out of a tie for first place and into their current position in fifth.
The La Liga giants now travel to Greece for a match in which they will be favoured to win. That's not only because of their historical stature compared to Olympiacos, but also recent results.
Olympiacos are still looking for their first victory of the 2025-26 tournament, as they sit in 31st place with two wins and two draws. The Greek side's most recent Champions League result was a 1-1 draw with PSV.

Olympiacos vs. Real Madrid - the key men
Ayoub El Kaabi - Olympiacos
The Moroccan No. 9 is the spear of the attack for Olympiacos, but he'll likely be defending more than he's used to when Real Madrid are in town.
However, El Kaabi is also his team's designated penalty taker and would be the one stepping up to the spot should the occasion demand it. The Greek side could look to cause choas in the box in their limited time on the ball, and El Kaabi's got the confidence to score under pressure.
Jude Bellingham - Real Madrid
The English star is suddenly in a fight to win his place for the Three Lions at next summer's World Cup, and one of the best ways to do that is to excel at the club level with the most successful side on Earth.
Bellingham is a key part of Real Madrid's midfield and has shown in recent games exactly how valuable he is, and with added motivation the 22-year-old is an extremely dangerous weapon for Xabi Alonso.

Olympiacos vs. Real Madrid prediction
