Europa League

Olympiakos performed with great credit during a 1-1 first-leg draw against Wolves in Greece after going down to 10 men with less than half an hour gone. Having knocked out Arsenal in the previous round via a 2-1 extra-time win in London, we feel they command plenty of respect at Molineux. More...

Man Utd all but guaranteed themselves a place in the Europa League quarter-finals when beating LASK Linz 5-0 in Austria back in March. However, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will still be keen to pick up a positive result in the return fixture ahead of travelling to Germany for the closing stages. More...

Manchester United are 2/1 favourites in bwin's Europa League winner odds ahead of the competition resuming at the last-16 stage. Having wrapped up third place in the Premier League, the Red Devils hold a 5-0 lead over LASK Linz going into the second leg of their tie at Old Trafford. More...

With COVID-19 causing havoc among the sporting world, we are taking a look at the latest football coronavirus news in terms of fixtures being postponed. Major leagues and competitions have been shut down around the globe, with a number of high-profile players and managers already affected by the disease. More...

Rangers look up against it when taking on a red-hot Bayer Leverkusen side at the last-16 stage of the Europa League. The German outfit impressed when beating Porto twice in the previous round and have claimed seven wins, plus a draw at RB Leipzig, from their last nine Bundesliga fixtures. More...

Manchester United survived a tricky Europa League test when visiting Club Brugge and are fancied to finish the job off at Old Trafford. The Red Devils started shakily in Belgium after making six changes, but looked the better team in the second half of that contest and have more scope for improvement. More...

Arsenal are in pole position to qualify for the last 16 of the Europa League for a third straight season after a 1-0 win over Olympiakos in Greece. The Gunners reached the semis two seasons ago and the final last term, so this is proving a happy hunting ground since dropping out of Champions League contention. More...

Wolves look assured of a place in the last 16 of the Europa League after crushing Espanyol 4-0 at Molineux and may be content to cruise through the second leg. Their opponents are far more focused on a La Liga relegation battle than battling back in this tie, so this has the makings of a low-key contest. More...

Celtic left Denmark with mixed feelings following last week's 1-1 Europa League draw with FC Copenhagen but are fancied to ease through in Glasgow. The Hoops had chances to establish a strong first-leg lead at Parken Stadion, but ended up needing a superb penalty save to return home on level terms. More...

Ajax have a mountain to climb in their Europa League last-32 tie after putting in a lacklustre effort when beaten 2-0 by Getafe at Coliseum Alfonso Perez. The Spanish outfit enjoyed a bit of good fortune with a deflected second goal on the stroke of full-time, but were good value for their victory overall. More...

LASK Linz look worthy favourites to reach the last 16 of the Europa League after returning from the Netherlands on level terms against AZ Alkmaar. The Austrian outfit impressed at Linzer Stadion during the group stage, beating Sporting Lisbon, PSV Eindhoven and Rosenborg by an aggregate score of 8-1. More...

Rangers staged a fantastic fightback when beating Braga 3-2 in the first leg of their Europa League tie but we fear it may ultimately prove in vain. Their opponents have been in outstanding form in Portugal and looked an excellent team at times at Ibrox, despite being hampered by a poor playing surface. More...

This will be the fourth time these familiar foes have faced each other in as many months and the set-up of this meeting makes CFR Cluj a percentage pick. Celtic have already wrapped up top spot in Europa League Group E, but their hosts need to avoid defeat here to guarantee pipping Lazio for second. More...

Rangers only need a draw to qualify from Europa League Group G and are taken to achieve just that result when entertaining Young Boys at Ibrox. This has been an ultra-competitive pool, with a whole series of close contests leaving all four teams still in contention to advance ahead of Matchday 6. More...

PSV and Rosenborg will both end their Europa League involvement on Thursday night, but the Dutch outfit are at least fancied to bow out on a high note. Mark van Bommel's men have picked up seven points in Group D, but even a win here would not help them to overhaul Sporting Lisbon or LASK Linz. More...

Porto will progress from Europa League Group G if beating Feyenoord on home turf at Estadio do Dragao and look well placed to achieve that feat. The visitors could also still sneak through with a victory, but have lost on their previous two road trips to Rangers and Young Boys without scoring. More...

Freddie Ljungberg enjoyed his first win in charge of Arsenal at West Ham and will be keen to build more momentum when visiting Standard Liege. The Gunners only need to avoid a heavy defeat to advance from Europa League Group F but are fancied to claim another morale-boosting victory in Belgium. More...

Both teams have already qualified for the Europa League knockout rounds and are expected to make changes ahead of important domestic contests on Sunday. More...

Wolves have already booked a place in the Europa League knockout rounds but still have top spot in Group K to play for when entertaining Besiktas. The Turkish outfit can't qualify for the next phase, lost 1-0 at home to Wanderers and were beaten in both previous away games in this section. More...

Arsenal have already won 3-0 away to Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League this season but still may be worth opposing in the reverse fixture. The Gunners only need to avoid defeat at Emirates Stadium to reach the knockout rounds, whereas the German outfit are fighting for survival. More...

Rangers can move another step towards qualifying for the Europa League knockout stages by holding Feyenoord to a draw in Rotterdam. Steven Gerrard's side shaded a 1-0 victory when these teams met in Glasgow on Matchday 1 but would almost certainly settle for a share of the spoils at De Kuip. More...

Celtic have been superb in Europa League Group E and can wrap up top spot by beating basement dwellers Rennes at Parkhead. These teams drew 1-1 in France on Matchday 1, but the Hoops have since claimed three straight wins, while Les Rouge et Noir have suffered a trio of defeats. More...

Manchester United made hard work of beating Astana at home in the Europa League but should be looking to secure a smoother success in the return fixture. The Kazakhstan outfit were resilient at Old Trafford, but have since had the stuffing knocked out of them by suffering three more defeats. More...

Wolves head to Portugal needing a point to guarantee a place in the last 32 of the Europa League with a game to spare in Group K.

Sporting have recovered well from a 3-2 loss away to PSV on Matchday 1 of Europa League Group D and are fancied to gain revenge in Portugal. The Lions rattled off three straight wins in this competition following a change of leadership and have also shown improved form when on domestic duty. More...

Wolves did well to come from behind and beat Slovan Bratislava 2-1 in Slovakia and are fancied to come out on top in another open encounter at Molineux. Wanderers are currently a point behind Europa League Group K leaders Braga, with their opponents three points back in third at the halfway stage. More...

Celtic edged out Lazio 2-1 in a cracking Europa League contest at Parkhead, but we're backing the Serie A outfit to claim revenge in the reverse fixture. The Hoops have a dreadful record when travelling to Italy in UEFA competitions, suffering nine defeats in 12 winless trips to this country. More...

Rangers were good value for their point when drawing 1-1 away to Porto in the Europa League and are fancied to come out on top in the return fixture. Both teams are on four points in what is proving a very tight pool, but home advantage has generally been the deciding factor in this section. More...

United haven't been pretty to watch in the Europa League, but they are just about getting the job done and should see off Partizan Belgrade. The Red Devils top the Group L table on seven points after winning 1-0 in Serbia and will be all but through if doing the double over Savo Milosevic's side. More...

PSV are going through a rocky patch in the Eredivisie but travelling to Linz to take on LASK in the Europa League could prove a welcome respite. The Dutch outfit were much the better team when these sides played out a goalless draw in Eindhoven a couple of weeks ago and still top the Group D table. More...
