Olympiacos are at the home of their greatest rivals for today’s Europa Conference League final against Fiorentina.

The Serie A side make their second consecutive trip to this showpiece having lost to West Ham in Prague a year ago.

Athens will play host this time around and Olympiacos will hope to bank on plenty of home support, although inside the stadium of rivals AEK Athens there may be some locals backing Fiorentina.

Fiorentina have not lost a game through this year’s tournament having topped their group before overcoming Club Brugge in the last round.
