Asteras Tripolis vs Olympiakos Piraeus: match prediction on 30 August 2026

Olympiakos win. The visitors have dominated this fixture recently — winning six of the last nine meetings — and the model expects them to score 1.6 goals to Asteras's 0.6. Confidence: 65%.

Asteras Tripolis have not started this season well. They lost their opening match 1-3 away to Panetolikos on 23 August and sit 12th in the table with zero points. Their last five matches show a pattern of struggle: one win, two draws, two losses, with four goals scored and seven conceded. They have played all five of those fixtures away from home.

Olympiakos have begun more positively. They beat Atromitos 1-0 at home on 22 August and sit sixth with three points. Their last five matches include a win, a draw, and three defeats — four goals scored, eight conceded. They also played several away games, including a Champions League exit against NEC Nijmegen, but the league victory gives them momentum.

The head-to-head record is heavily weighted against Asteras. In the last nine meetings they won one, drew two, and lost six. The most recent encounter was a 3-0 defeat for the hosts on 4 February 2026. Before that, Olympiakos won 2-1 at home in February 2024 and drew 1-1 away in February 2025. Asteras's only recent home win came in October 2024, 1-0.

The model's expected goals suggest a low-scoring affair. Asteras are expected to score 0.6 goals, Olympiakos 1.6. The most likely scoreline is 0-1 at 18%, followed by 0-2 at 14% and 0-0 at 12%. The draw probability sits at 25%, while both teams to score is 36%. Three or more goals in the match are expected at 37%.

Asteras have been more dangerous in the first half. They score 40% of their goals between minutes 31 and 45, and 13% in the opening 15. They also concede heavily in that same period — 26% of their goals against come between minutes 31 and 45. Olympiakos are more dangerous after the break, with 24% of their goals in the 46-60 minute window and another 24% in the final 15 minutes.

Olympiakos have more possession on average — 58% compared to Asteras's 52% — and create more chances. They average 4.7 shots on target per game versus 4.0 for Asteras, and 5.8 corners compared to 3.25. Their attacking output is significantly higher: 182 attacks per game against 102 for the hosts.

Asteras overturn the prediction if they score first. Given their tendency to find the net in the opening 15 minutes — 13% of their goals — an early strike would shift the dynamic. Olympiakos have conceded 15% of their goals in that same window, so a quick start for the hosts could neutralise the visitors' advantage.

Olympiakos win.
