Wolves make a return to European action tonight as they host Greek side Olympiakos in the Europa League.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side know they must win the competition to return to Continental action next term, after failing to qualify for the Europa League through their seventh-place Premier League finish.

In the Greek Super League, Olympiakos won the title by 18 points.

The first leg between the sides ended 1-1 in March.

How can I watch it online and on TV?

The game will be broadcast live on BT Sport 1, BT Sport Extra 1 and BT Sport Ultimate.

Prediction

It’s all-or-nothing for Wolves with European football in 2020/21 now: win this competition and they get Champions League, or don’t win and get nothing. It’s a good incentive to progress.
