Football – Europe – Europa League Betting Tips

Next up is a look at Group D which is shaping up into an interesting tussle between the other three teams in the group as they look to join runaway group leaders Zenit St Petersburg into the next phase of the Europa League.

Having completed half of the group matches already, Match Day 4 brings us an interesting clash between Zenit and second placed Dundalk at the Stadion Petrovskij with Zenit looking to register a fourth consecutive group win having virtually guaranteed their passage into the knock-out rounds already.

Wins over Maccabi Tel Aviv, AZ Alkmaar and plucky Irish outfit Dundalk have meant that tonight’s hosts hold a 100% record in Group D, and having scored plenty of goals in the process (11 to be precise) from their three matches already, I’m expecting more goals this evening.

Visitors Dundalk earned a creditable point away at AZ Alkmaar in their opening group match which was then followed up with a solid 1-0 home win over Maccabi Tel Aviv and although they lost last time out to tonight’s opponents Zenit, the Irish side still have a great chance of making it into the next stage of the Europa League.

Whether they take a step closer this evening remains to be seen as they head into their biggest test yet into Russia to take on Zenit in their own backyard, but they still have time to regroup if they do end up on the losing side this evening.

I fancy Dundalk will rely heavily on their form at Oriel Park to see them through this group though.

Pick: Zenit HT/FT @ 1.60 Coral
