Champions League Betting Preview: Bayer Leverkusen vs Olympiacos

German Bundesliga outfit Bayer Leverkusen host Greek Super League club Olympiacos at BayArena in the second leg of this Champions League play-off tie, with kick-off set for 15:00 on Tuesday 24 February.

The standout bet can be found on the Full-Time Result market where Bayer Leverkusen are currently priced at -133. We think Die Werkself can overcome Olympiacos and this looks a value play.
