The notion that Beşiktaş require this Europa League match for confidence doesn't convince me. That's why I'm backing Kauno Žalgiris with a +1 handicap at 2.32.

Beşiktaş at 2.08 to cover a -1.5 handicap? I'll take that. The gap in class between a Lithuanian side and a Turkish giant in the Europa League is massive. The Black Eagles have far too much quality not to win this by a comfortable two-goal margin.

Kauno Žalgiris are up against a Beşiktaş side that is simply on another level. On their own turf, the Turkish team should have no trouble covering a -1.5 handicap, and the odds are too good to pass up.

Beşiktaş have clearly found their rhythm, and I expect them to win here. They’re facing Kauno Žalgiris in the Europa League, and the gap in class is too wide to ignore. I’m backing the visitors to cover a -1.5 handicap at 2.02—this should be a comfortable vic…

Lillestrøm with a -1.5 handicap is the clear play here. Playing at home, the Norwegian side should be far more powerful and dominate from start to finish. I expect them to secure a confident victory by at least two goals against Egnatia in the Europa League.

Egnatia are coming to Norway, but this tie already feels decided. Lillestrøm are the stronger side and I trust them to cover the -1.5 handicap at 2.29. The home crowd at Åråsen will push them to an early goal and then it’s about killing off the contest.

Lillestrøm are at home, and that's a big factor here. I'm backing them with a -1 handicap because they consistently deliver strong attacking performances on their own turf. Expect them to win by at least two goals in this Europa League clash.

Lillestrøm came through the away leg intact, and that gives them a real platform to finish the job in front of their own fans. The return match sets up perfectly for the hosts to take control early and settle the tie without unnecessary drama.

Red Bull Salzburg will have to work hard to break down a Mjällby side that rarely gets blown out. I'm backing the visitors to keep the deficit to a single goal or less, making the +1.5 handicap a solid value play.

Handicap 1 (-1.5)odds 1.61

Red Bull Salzburg’s win in Sweden was far from easy. Mjällby sat deep and almost nullified the Austrian attack with their counter-defensive setup, but a late own goal and constant pressure cracked them (0-1). That result forces Karl Aksum’s side to open up ev…

This is a must-win situation for Salzburg after the first leg didn't go their way. They should have put the tie to bed in the opening match, and a bit of bad luck was the only thing that stopped them. I fully expect them to correct that here.

Mjällby’s getting a generous head start here, and I’m backing them with a +1.5 handicap at 2.18. Red Bull Salzburg are massively overrated in this spot — the side just isn’t as strong as the market thinks. Don’t expect a blowout; the visitors can keep this ti…

Salzburg at home will end Mjällby's Europa League run. The Austrian side is simply too strong for the Swedish visitors, and I expect a dominant performance that covers the -2.5 handicap.

Let’s be honest — Riga at home is a completely different animal, and Klaksvík just doesn’t have the tools to handle them here. History shows this kind of matchup usually ends in a blowout, so I’m taking Riga with a -2 handicap. At 2.94, the odds are too good …

Freiburg are hosting Motherwell in the Conference League, and I’m backing the home side to cover a -2 handicap at odds of 1.96. Motherwell’s Scottish indifference will be a decisive factor in this clash.

Iberia 1999 host Jagiellonia in the Europa League, and the pattern so far has been clear: every team that won the first leg by a big margin ended up losing the second. But I’m betting that trend flips here. I’ve taken Iberia 1999 with a handicap of 0 at 2.63 …

KuPS with a -1 handicap at 2.79 is the play here. Shamrock Rovers simply won’t be able to handle the hosts over the full 90 minutes on August 27th in the Conference League. I expect KuPS to win by at least two goals, making this handicap a solid value pick.
