Barca a blip?
It's quite possible that Juventus' heavy 3-0 defeat by Barcelona will prove to be their biggest of this season.
At this point Juve's opening loss in the Champions League can be seen as a hiccup, rather than a symptom of deeper problems. Juventus have started their Serie A season in typically dominating form, winning all six of their games, in which they've only conceded three goals.
Over the weekend they warmed up for this one with a 4-0 thrashing of their local rivals Torino. Though Torino suffered a first-half sending off, Juventus took full advantage as they attempted to boost their goal difference and catch up with the league leaders Napoli.
Now they will look to claim their first European win of the season against an Olympiakos team in poor form. The Greeks have only won one of their last five games, which is a run that includes an opening Champions League defeat at home to Sporting Lisbon and a 3-2 loss to AEK Athens on Sunday.
Juve will get back to defensive best
With Olympiakos currently struggling for form, this should be a straightforward victory for Juventus in which they should record a clean sheet.
Juve have kept clean sheets in ten of their last twelve home games. They did not concede in four of their six group games last season and in total managed nine clean sheets in 13 matches, as they reached the final of the Champions League.
This season their defence has once again looked thrifty, despite the loss of Leonardo Bonucci to AC Milan. They've kept clean sheets in four of their six Serie A games, which includes their last two outings. Back Juve to Win To Nil at generous odds of 1.72.
