Football – Europe – Europa League Betting Tips

Onto Group I, and we have an interesting clash between Belgian side, Genk, and Swedish club,Malmo, when the two teams clash on Thursday night as the betting tips continue.

Genk collected an eighth win from their last nine matches overall on the weekend when they secured all three points in a 1–0 home win over Anderlecht in the Belgian top flight which maintained second place behind early leaders Club Brugge.

On the European front, Genk have been involved in the qualifying rounds of this season’s Europa League with a resounding second qualifying win over Luxembourg outfit Fola Esche 9-1 on aggregate along with a third qualifying round win over Polish club Lech Poznan, winning 4-1 on aggregate.

The hosts then saw off Norwegian side Brondby in another high-scoring affair, winning 9-4 on aggregate. Needless to say, goals could also feature here with the likes of midfielder Malinovskiy (4 goals) and forward Samatta (3 goals) in their personnel. Genk have won all six of their Europa League ties to reach the group stages.

Malmo make their way to the Luminus Arena in Belgium also in reasonably good form as the Swedish outfit have won their last four matches on the trot in all competitions having recorded three wins in the domestic Allsvenskan league as well as an away tie at Midtjylland in this competition.

League wins over Sirius, Brommapojkarna and Ostersunds have been complemented by a Europa  League away win at Midtjylland, and although they were surprise losers to Hungarian side Videoton in the qualifying round of the Champions League, they have another chance at European success in these group stages.

The visitors also possess some dangerous goalscoring threats from Rieks (9 goals), Rosenberg (9 goals), Strandberg (6 goals) and Antonsson (4 goals) in their armoury, so we could be set for a few goals in this encounter.

My betting tips suggest backing the over 2.5 in the goals market in this clash.

Pick: Over 2.5 @ 1.67 Bet Victor
