02/14/2012 - Moscow, Russia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - David Fuster scored and Roy Carroll saved a penalty as Olympiacos kicked off the Europa League round of 32 on Tuesday with a 1-0 win over Rubin at Luzhniki Stadium.

Carroll replaced Megyeri in goal and, with his first touch, saved the penalty from Bebras Natcho and 10-man Olympiacos held on for the huge road win in the first leg of the series.

The remainder of the final 32 series kick off Thursday, with Manchester United at Ajax and Manchester City at FC Porto highlighting the day's action.
