Union SG vs Liverpool – Under 2.5 goals @ 31/20
Liverpool are already through as group winners so squad rotation and a drop in intensity is surely inevitable as Jurgen Klopp’s men head to third-placed Union SG, who must win and hope Toulouse are beaten by LASK to have any hope of progressing. The Belgians have only managed three goals in Group E so far and have been blanked three times, including in a 2-0 defeat at Anfield, but may not have to face some of Liverpool’s biggest attacking threats so we’re backing another low-scoring match to kick off our Europa League predictions.
Real Betis to beat Rangers @ 88/100
Rangers missed a chance to secure their progress as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Aris Limassol at Ibrox last time out and they have work to do at the Group C leaders in the final fixture. Rangers sit second, one point behind Betis and one above Sparta Prague, so all is to play for but we fear that result against the Cypriot side will come back to haunt Rangers and fancy a home win.
Brighton to beat Marseille @ 7/10
European new boys Brighton will continue their adventure into next year after Joao Pedro’s 55th-minute penalty earned a 1-0 win over AEK Athens which was enough for a top-two finish in Group B. However, Roberto De Zerbi’s men remain a point behind leaders Marseille, who beat 10-man Ajax 4-3 thanks to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang completing his hat-trick in stoppage time. Brighton came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 when the teams met in France in October and were good value for that result. With home advantage, we reckon they can get the win they need to top the group here.
West Ham to beat Freiburg and over 2.5 goals @ 29/20
West Ham are in a similar position to Brighton, having already secured progress but they now go head-to-head with their nearest rivals to decide who tops Group A. West Ham currently top the table and were 2-1 winners in the reverse fixture but must be wary of the attacking threat of the Germans, who are the top scorers during the group stage with 17 goals after back-to-back 5-0 wins. The Hammers are fancied for a repeat win but we’re adding over 2.5 goals to bump up the odds in our Europa League predictions.
