From Serbian giants Crvena Zvezda to Fenerbahçe, there are some strong favourites on the card, but there are also a couple of value opportunities worth considering.
Here are our five best bets for tonight’s action.
1. Fenerbahce to beat Górnik Zabrze
Fenerbahce hold a narrow first-leg advantage and head into the return leg with the quality and experience to see the tie through. The Turkish side possess significantly more firepower than their Polish opponents and should have enough to secure victory away from home.
Best Bet: Fenerbahçe to Win at 1.47.
2. Crvena Zvezda to beat Larne
This looks the safest selection of the night.
The Serbian champions thrashed Larne 4-0 in the first leg and now return home with one foot already in the next round. Red Star have won both halves in similar European qualifiers before and are expected to dominate once again against the Northern Irish champions.
Best Bet: Crvena Zvezda to Win at 1.05.
3. CS Universitatea Craiova to beat Levski Sofia
This could prove to be one of the better value prices on the board.
Craiova trail 1-0 on aggregate after the first leg but now return home needing a response. Expect the Romanians to attack from the opening whistle, and with home support behind them they have every chance of turning the tie around.
Best Bet: CS Universitatea Craiova to Win at 1.95.
4. Hapoel Be’er Sheva to beat Víkingur Reykjavík
The first leg finished level, leaving everything to play for.
Hapoel now have home advantage and significantly more European experience than the Icelandic outfit. They should control possession and create enough chances to edge what promises to be a tight encounter.
Best Bet: Hapoel Be’er Sheva to Win at 1.63.
5. Lech Poznan vs AGF Aarhus – Both Teams To Score
Lech carry a commanding 4-1 aggregate lead after an entertaining first leg, but AGF have little choice but to attack if they are to have any chance of staying alive.
That should create an open contest, with Lech dangerous on the counter and AGF likely to commit numbers forward. Goals at both ends look a strong play.
Best Bet: Both Teams To Score – Yes at 2.18.
