Olympiacos, meanwhile, is unbeaten in the Greek league and is the overall leader with 20 points, reaffirming its position after last Saturday's 2-1 away win over Panetolikos.

Frankfurt is coming off a 1-1 Bundesliga draw with Leipzig last Saturday, but remains in the bottom half of the table with just 9 points from 10 games.

We begin with the coverage of the game that could define who stays in first place by the end of the season, as Olympiacos will do the honors against Frankfurt of Germany.

This will be the second time they meet this season, remembering that "in the first leg" Frankfurt won at home by a score of 3-1 with goals from Santos Borré, Touré and Kamada; El Arabi scored for the visitors.

Colombian striker Rafael Santos Borré has been a luxury for the German squad with goals and contributing to the generation of the attack, so his presence in the area will be key to get a positive result away from home.

The recent arrival of Tiquinho Soares has been a luxury for the Greek team because it gives a large volume to the offensive generation, especially for its verticality in the field.

1 Kevin Trapp, 13 Martin Hinteregger, 2 Obite Ndicka, 35 Tuta , 7 Ajdin Hrustic, 8 Djibril Sow, 37 Erik Durm, 18 Almamy Touré, 19 Santos Borré, 10 Filip Kostic, 15 Daichi Kamada

Despite being visitors, the German side starts as favorites for this group and for this match, remembering that a few weeks ago they caused a surprise in the Bundesliga by beating Bayern away; on Saturday they got a 1-1 draw at home against Leipzig.

If Olympiacos are to avoid any problems in advancing to the next round of this competition, they will have to make their home advantage count, especially in a direct clash for the top of the group, which could be decided as early as Thursday.

Eintracht Frankfurt remains the only undefeated team in this sector after the first round with seven points, followed by Olympiacos with six points, Fenerbahce in third place with two points and Antwerp at the bottom with one point.

The Olympiacos vs Eintracht Frankfurt match will be played at the Karaiskakis Stadium, in Pireo, Greece. The kick-off is scheduled at 1:45 pm ET.
