Olympiacos will welcome Nottingham Forest to the Karaiskakis Stadium for a friendly on Saturday (December 10).
The hosts are coming off a thrilling 3-3 draw with Standard Liege in a friendly on Sunday. Osher Davida gave Liege a half-time lead but an exhilarating second half produced five goals, with Youssef El Arabi and Noah Ohio scoring a brace.
Nottingham, meanwhile, suffered a 3-2 defeat to Greek side Atromitos in a friendly on Tuesday. Gustavo Scarpa and Ryan Yates scored either side of Andreas Kuen to give the Premier League side a 2-1 lead at the break. However, late strikes from Giorgos Tzovaras and Konstantinos Kotsopoulos saw Atromitos claim the win.
Forest will face Valencia in another friendly next week before resuming competitive action in the EFL Cup against Blackburn Rovers. Meanwhile, this will be Olympiacos' last friendly of the year before they host Atromitos in the Greek Cup.

Olympiacos vs Nottingham Forest Prediction
Olympiacos have been far from impressive domestically and are unlikely to defend their league crown.
The Greek champions have shown a high proclivity for draws, having drawn three of their last five games, including friendlies.
Nottingham, meanwhile, have lost both their friendlies during the World Cup break, despite taking a halft-ime lead in both. Olympiacos should capitalize on the visitors' defensive vulnerability to claim a narrow win.
