Olympiacos Piraeus are in the driver’s seat in their Champions League qualifying draw against Turkish team Istanbul Basaksehir after the Reds won in the 1st leg in Constantinople by a solitary goal from George Massouras in the 53rd minute.

The Greek team needs to prove their superiority by wrapping up the bout in the second leg which is scheduled to take place at the Karaiskakis next Thursday ((13/08, 21:30).

The Greek team will most likely face Portuguese giants Porto in the next knock out stage after the “Dragons” secured a 1-goal advantage against Krasnodar with second leg to be played in Portugal.
