Aston Villa defeated Liverpool, bringing a smile to Olympiacos' faces, as the prerequisites for the team to advance to the 3rd qualifying round of the Champions League, instead of the 2nd (if they finish second in the Super League playoffs), are being met.
Now, the Red and Whites are focused on finishing above PAOK and will then await... gifts from Villa, while a first idea of the potential opponents for José Luis Mendilibar's team is already emerging.
Football Meets Data predicts that the Piraeus team will manage to be among the seeded teams in the 3rd qualifying round, with Sparta Prague definitively unseeded, and Fenerbahce, Union Saint-Gilloise, and Twente having a good chance of joining them there.
