Bayer Leverkusen hosts Olympiacos at the BayArena for the second leg of their Champions League play-off tonight.
The German team has a 2-0 advantage from the first leg, thanks to two goals from Patrik Schick in the second half in Athens.
Recently, Leverkusen has performed well but faced a setback, losing 1-0 to Union Berlin last weekend. Before that loss, they had won six of their last eight matches across all competitions.
Leverkusen previously lost to Olympiacos in Greece during the league stage, so they will be cautious about a possible comeback despite their lead.
