The victory took the Red-Whites to second spot in the standings, having garnered maximum points from two games, while Lamia are fourth with four points.

Lamia vs Olympiacos Prediction
Lamia finished sixth in the league last term and have started the new campaign with a two-game unbeaten streak. However, they have tended to struggle in this fixture and are heavy underdogs despite playing at home.
Olympiacos come into this game knowing their fate in the expanded UEFA Europa League. They secured their spot in Europe's second-tier club competition, having become the first Greek side to win a European trophy when they won the UEFA Conference League last term.
Jose Luis Mendilibar's side finished a disappointing third last season in the league and will hope to make an improvement this time. Olympiacos have started the season with a two-game winning streak and are the favourites to emerge triumphant.
Expect the visitors to claim maximum points with a comfortable win and goals at both ends.
