Football Betting Tips

Velez Sarsfield lead the way in Argentina’s top tier after six rounds of fixtures and they’ve got a perfect home record with six wins in as many games. They should be able to claim maximum points against a Riestra outfit who are still seeking their first victory.

Bologna won the first leg 1-0 and should be able to win the tie, but Brann can at least get on the scoresheet. Brann’s season ends if they are eliminated and they should throw everything at Bologna. The hosts have just one clean sheet in their last 13 home games and Brann scored at PAOK and Lille during the league phase, but Bologna are on a three-game winning streak and the Italian side have more than enough quality to win even if they do concede.

Celta have beaten PAOK twice this season and can complete a hat-trick by ending this tie with a victory on Thursday. PAOK did score in both previous meetings between these side and they scored in all their league phase trips. The visitors have to go for it as they bid to recover a deficit and they can get on the scoresheet, but a Celta win is expected.

Genk won the first leg 3-1 and with home advantage they can see off Dinamo Zagreb with another victory. The Smurfs have won five of their last six games, while Dinamo struggled on their travels in the league phase and have lost their last two trips in Europe. Dinamo lost 2-0 at Mudtjylland and 4-0 at Lille during the league phase, they could be picked apart by Genk and the hosts look capable of winning with some room to spare. 

Fenerbache have to throw everything at Forest in this second leg and they have scored in seven of their nine games in the competition so far. Forest have only lost one of their last five matches at home and they scored two or more in each of their four games at the City Ground in the League Phase. Forest won the first leg 3-0 but goals at both ends looks likely in the return fixture.

Stuttgart were good value for their 4-1 win in the first leg and with Celtic potentially set to rest players with one eye on their crucial Scottish Premiership clash against Rangers on Sunday, Die Roten are fancied for another comfortable success.

Crystal Palace were unable to find a way past Zrinjski in last week’s first leg, but they responded by beating Wolves 1-0 on Sunday, their first home success since November. Zrinjski failed to win any of their away games in the Conference League and they were also unable to trouble the scoresheet.

Fiorentina secured a hefty 3-0 advantage in this Conference League playoff away from home last week, and they should have few problems finishing the job back in Florence on Thursday.

Iago Aspas should be handed a Celta start after scoring twice from the bench in the win over Mallorca at the weekend. Aspas has also scored in both previous meetings with PAOK and the 38-year-old can terrorise the Thessaloniki outfit once again.

Noah won the first leg 1-0 but with home advantage AZ can strike back. The Dutch side have suffered just two defeats at this venue all season and Noah failed to win any of their league phase trips.

PAOK did score in both previous meetings between these side and they scored in all their league phase trips. The visitors have to go for it as they bid to recover a deficit and they can get on the scoresheet, but a Celta win is expected. Celta have scored at least twice in five of their last six home games and a bold play on a 4-1 home win is the pick here, potentially with a couple of goals for the hosts late on as PAOK may need to simply throw everyone forward and that should allow Celta to kill the tie off on the counter.

The Reds have the fourth-best Expected Goals record across the first six Champions League gameweeks, while they’ve recorded back-to-back 1-0 wins over Real Madrid and Inter Milan in Europe. Arne Slot’s side have a kind double-header in January, leaving them primed for a top-eight finish. With the Premier League coasting towards a fifth Champions League berth, the Reds should be in a good position to focus on European success in the spring.

Spain have some incredibly talented individuals, Lamine Yamal being the prime example, but are strong in all areas and don’t have any particular weaknesses.
