Rangers vs Athletic Bilbao

Herrin Kendrick; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
This trip to Glasgow provides a perfect storm for Athletic Bilbao to assert their European credentials. Rangers’ Ibrox form has turned sour, with five consecutive defeats on home soil. That stat alone shifts momentum toward the Basques. While Rangers often show fighting spirit away, they crumble under pressure in front of their home crowd, as seen in losses to Fenerbahce and even lowly Hibernian. Injuries and suspensions are also piling up, weakening their starting XI and bench depth. Souttar and Diomande are key absentees, meaning less protection for a defence already leaking goals.

Bilbao, in contrast, are moving with calm assurance. They’ve gone unbeaten in their last five matches and kept three consecutive clean sheets. The Williams brothers, especially Nico, have added explosive pace and end product in the final third. Expect them to exploit the spaces Rangers will leave as they chase a crucial first-leg result. With their tactical discipline and dangerous transitions, the Spaniards are well set to silence the Ibrox crowd.

Best bet – Athletic Bilbao to win

Lyon vs Manchester United

Tyler Morris; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Entertainment is almost guaranteed when Lyon meet Manchester United, with both teams known for adventurous attacking play and flawed defensive setups. Lyon have found the net 29 times in their last 10 games, with the majority of those contests producing three or more goals. Even without Nuamah, their threat hasn’t diminished – Mikautadze has been red-hot up top, while Cherki and Almada continue to generate chances from deeper positions. Tolisso’s late runs add another dimension.

United, meanwhile, are unpredictable but dangerous. Bruno Fernandes has been influential, especially in Europe where he recently scored a hat-trick. Zirkzee and Hojlund offer different threats depending on the lineup, but the Red Devils’ issue remains their backline. They’ve only managed one clean sheet in six games and still miss key players like Martinez and Mainoo. Both teams concede, both can score, and the rhythm of this match screams goals.

Best bet – Over 2.5 goals

Tottenham Hotspur vs Eintracht Frankfurt

Steve Harrington; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Tottenham remain one of the most chaotic yet effective attacking sides in Europe this season. At home, their form is reliable – they’ve won four of their five Europa League games at their new stadium, often by convincing margins. Their front line, with Son and Johnson, is brimming with pace and movement. Maddison’s creativity and Bentancur’s return offer balance, while Solanke’s recent inclusion has added variety.

The issue lies at the back. Spurs have only kept one clean sheet in their last 11 fixtures, and that trend is unlikely to end against a Frankfurt side who usually score, even when they lose. The Germans have been poor travellers, winning just three of their last 11 on the road and conceding two or more in most of those outings. Gotze and Ekitike have the intelligence to exploit Tottenham’s high line, but Postecoglou’s men should still outscore them.

Best bet – Tottenham to win and both teams to score

Legia Warsaw vs Chelsea

John Pentin; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Chelsea’s performances in Europe have become defined by control and professionalism, rather than flair and goals. Their recent results – three 1-0 wins and a goalless draw – show how Maresca has instilled discipline in a side that previously lacked identity. With a full week to prepare and first-team regulars such as Palmer and Jackson rested, Chelsea should come into this clash well-drilled.

Legia, however, have not fared well in Europe lately. They’ve suffered three losses in their last four Conference League ties and now face a Chelsea team on an eight-match European winning streak. Two key defenders are suspended for the hosts, which won’t help a defence that already looks brittle against quality. Chelsea might not run riot, but they’ve shown they can suffocate teams, take their chances, and shut up shop.

Best bet – Chelsea to win and under 2.5 goals

Real Betis vs Jagiellonia Bialystok

Gram Dodd; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Real Betis are enjoying one of their best runs in recent memory. Unbeaten in eight games and fresh off a strong showing against Barcelona, they enter this European fixture with form and momentum. Isco returns to the squad, adding flair and vision to a midfield already brimming with confidence. The Spaniards have also shown grit, bouncing back from a 2-2 home draw in the last round to dismantle Guimaraes away 4-0.

Jagiellonia have impressed on their historic run but now face a significant step up in class. They’ve lost two of their last three away matches in the competition and are missing key players, including defender Adrian Dieguz. Despite finding the net regularly, they’ll struggle to contain Betis over 90 minutes. However, they’ve shown enough attacking promise to suggest they can grab a goal before fading. Betis should take the first-leg advantage, but it might not be all one-way traffic.

Best bet – Real Betis to win and both teams to score

Celje vs Fiorentina

Wolfgang Shotten; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Fiorentina’s journey in this competition has been one of resilience and purpose. Beaten finalists in back-to-back years, they arrive in Slovenia with eyes firmly on returning to the grand stage. Their last round proved they can grind out results under pressure, overturning a first-leg deficit against Panathinaikos with a composed display at home.

Celje are a spirited side and have achieved impressive results domestically, but the gap in quality between them and Fiorentina is wide. The Slovenians conceded four times in a single match against Lugano and scraped through on penalties. Fiorentina have rediscovered rhythm, with Moise Kean in sharp form and a solid spine behind him. Even if they rotate, they have enough depth to manage this first leg. The Viola are more experienced at this level and have the weapons to take control of the tie early on.

Best bet – Fiorentina to win
