Olympiakos finished third in this season’s Super League Greece 1 thanks to a final-day draw at Panathinaikos. The latest edition of the Derby of the Eternal Enemies finished 2-2, Olympiakos coming back from two goals down thanks to late goals from Daniel Podence and Stevan Jovetić. Podence then managed to get himself sent off, but that doesn’t carry over into Uefa competition. They make three changes to their starting XI after that brouhaha: Francisco Ortega, Chiquinho and Vicente Iborra are in, André Horta, João Carvalho and Omar Richards dropping to the bench.
Fiorentina haven’t yet finished their Serie A obligations – they’ll play Europa League champions Atalanta on Sunday – but whatever happens there they’ll finish in eighth place. Their penultimate fixture was at Cagliari last Thursday; they won 3-2, turning things around in the last two minutes with a Nicolas Gonzalez equaliser and an Arthur penalty. Arthur, of 13-minute Liverpool legend, is one of four call-ups to the starting XI after that match; Nicolás González, Lucas Martínez Quarta and Christian Kouamé are also in. Jonathan Ikoné, Luca Ranieri and Antonín Barák drop to the bench, while Gaetano Castrovilli is ineligible.
