Projections indicate that the Zalgirio Arena will be flooded with the unwavering support of over 7,000 Greek fans on the final day.
From the moment the semi-final with Monaco was completed and Olympiacos secured their qualification to the final, the club and its fans tried to secure the presence of as many supporters as possible at Sunday's game.
The trip to Kaunas from any Greek city is not easy, nor is it simple to buy last-minute tickets.
According to the latest update and the efforts made by the Reds, somewhere between 1.00 and 1,500 Greek supporters are expected to attend the Zalgirio Arena Sunday.
Eventually, the charters that will fly out from Greece to Lithuania will not be two, but four, while some fans have found individual flights. Still, others are expected to hit the road. Per the same report, efforts are being made to find a fifth charter flight, however, this scenario seems far-fetched at the moment.
The latest 'wave' of Olympiacos fans got their tickets online, after several Monaco fans resold them after the defeat by the Reds in the semis.
About 5,000 Olympiacos supporters watched the semi-final live in the arena on Friday night.
The EuroLeague final between Olympiacos and Real Madrid will take place on Sunday at 19:00 CEST.
