UEFA Europa League: Best betting tips to bank on for Thursday

Thursday’s Europa league games bring an end to the group stage proceedings, and with the last match upon us, some teams need some fighting to do to ensure they make the last 32 round of the competition. Best Bookmakers look to make your picks easy for Thursday’s crunch fixtures.

Leicester to defeat Greek opposition

Leicester City bounced backed back from a four match winless streak with victory at Bramall Lane over Sheffield United and with that under their belt they welcome Aek Athens to the King Power stadium where a victory will ensure they remain top of the group standings and perhaps fetch them a weaker opponent in the next round of the competition.

Aek Athens are already out of this competition and only play for pride in this and with their somewhat stuttering form this season, a lot would be asked from them coming into this match and if they aren’t careful, a whitewash could look very likely in what might be a huge defeat for the Greek based outfit.

Both teams already know their fate coming into this match with one having qualified and the latter playing it’s last match in this edition. Leicester come into this match knowing a win would guarantee a top placed finish in their group and with Aek Athens still struggling to find their feet amidst disappointing results and all looks set for a Leicester victory as their goal to finish top place should give them the impetus to go for victory in this match. Novibet offers the win odd at 80/60.

Braga to edge a victory

Braga has been playing fine and scintillating football so far this season and that has shown well with two losses in ten games and sitting joint top on the table with Leicester. Victory here might very well see them topping the table especially if Leicester fail to win their own game with their Greek opponrnts.

Zorya have had their own Europa league final placing known and no matter what happens in this match, third place on the log is assured for them. They come into this match in high spirits though, stringing a good run of results lately including a 1-0 over Leicester last time out. Travelling to Portugal for this crunch tie is next on their sights.

Carlos Carlvahal and his SC Braga team know all that is as stake for this match. The champions league boys are coming into the round of thirty two and to avoid them means to win this match and with their exploits this season, all looks good in their favor of a comfortable home win here. Bwin offers the win odds for the Portuguese team at 70/48.

Tottenham to win top of table clash

Tottenham Hotspur have had a fine season going on for them, sitting top of the Epl and having qualified for the Europa league’s last thirty two round, the improvement has been quite visible both on and off the pitch and with Sunday’s 2-0 win over Arsenal still very much in their sights, a lot can be achieved this season with huge expectations placed on them.

Antwerp have certainly stunned everyone in this group and not many people would have ever predicted that they would top this table after five matches. They head into this match on fine form too with four wins picked up from a possible five and with twelve points from a possible fifteen. Going into this match will fill their confidence level as they look fired up to compete.

It’s a top of the table clash in this affair, both teams head into this game on back of fine form and with the reverse fixture ending in a win for the Belgians. Jose Mourinho’s side head into this game with revenge on their minds and a highly coveted top of the table finish in their sights too. All looks set for an intriguing encounter between this two sides with Tottenham expected to carry the day and Bet365 offering the odds at 50/38.
