Manchester United return to finish the impressive job done in the first leg of their Europa League tie against Real Sociedad. Scoring four goals away from home means the Red Devils have all but advanced to the round of 16.

Arsenal face a daunting task ahead as they need a win to qualify for the next round of games in the competition.

Roma were the clear favorites when this matchup was cast and they have proven that to be true.

Over 2.5 Goals

The Ajax vs Lille matchup produced the right number of goals we predicted the last time out and we are going with that today again. The last game saw Ajax edge Lille by a single goal which might be important in their bid to go ahead in the competition. Lille also would be looking to secure the win at all cost and by more than a goal too which means we are in for a potential cracker finish today. Bet9ja have 1.70, Bet365 have 1.72 and 1xbet have 1.80 odds.

Napoli and Granada face off again in what would be a very interesting game. Granada has the upper hand with a 2-goal lead from their last game.

AC Milan were quite lucky to come out with a draw last week against the surprising Red Star side. The match ended in a two-goal draw which worked in our favour in terms of our predictions. We might see more goals again today from both sides as they are looking for the win to progress into the next stage. Bet9ja has 1.64, Bet365 have 1.66 and 1xbet have 1.73 odds.

Bayer Leverkusen and Young Boys were the stars of this trip last week with a 7-goal thriller. Young boys won the match with a goal better but it doesn’t mean the tie has ended as both sides meet again today. With Leverkusen having three away goals and Young Boys also looking to keep their win, this could turn out to be a high stake match with lots of goals involved. Bet9ja have 1.44 Bet365 have 1.44 and 1xbet have 1.45 odds.

Anytime Goal-scorer

Aubameyang

Arsenal’s main man in front would be leading the line once again today as they intend to pass this stage. The draw last time out wasn’t the result they wanted but they scored a crucial away goal which might come in handy. He would be looking to score the goals that take them ahead as he is in decent form and he has a lot of players to create the chances for him. Bet9ja have 2.25 odds while Bet365 have 1.90.

Vardy

He wasn’t at his best in the last fixture which brought about the goalless draw in the match. He was rested and he would be fit and looking to take his team to the next stage also. He has been inspirational in the League this season and he can repeat that today. Bet9ja have 1.85 odds while Bet365 have 1.72.

Ibrahimovic

The ‘Beast’ Zlatan failed to score in the last game against this opponent but he would be looking to end that. Surprisingly, he hasn’t scored in this season’s competition yet and  the team would need him to emulate his goal-scoring form in the league here today. He is sure not to ghost in big games and he is likely to score and lead AC Milan to the next round. Bet9ja have 1.85 odds while Bet365 have 1.66 odds.

Rashford

Manchester United seem to have qualified for the next round with an insurmountable lead for opponent Real Sociedad today after their 4-1 loss to United. Rashford who is on an impressive form would make an appearance today and he could be a sure candidate to score today among the front three selected. Bet9ja have 1.95 odds while Bet365 have 1.90.

Tadic

He has the most goals for Ajax in the league currently and he has already registered a goal in scoring the equalizer against Lille that led to their impressive win. He would be a vital part of the team if they look to go home with the win today. He is likely to score today and he would relish the spotlight as he leads the Ajax team. Bet9ja have 2.50 odds while Bet365 have 2.30.
