Football – Europe – Europa League Betting Tips
Group F leaders Real Betis take on third placed Olympiakos as the betting tips continue in Thursday night’s Europa League with this group being one of the tightest to call as to who will qualify for the knockout rounds.
Real Betis lead by a single point ahead of AC Milan and Olympiakos, and they have a chance to do some real damage to Olympiakos’s hopes of finishing in the top two when they entertain the Greek side at their Estadio Benito Villamarín on Thursday night.
The hosts still remain unbeaten in these group stages with wins over F91 Dudelange 3-0 at home and a 2-1 win away at AC Milan along with points taken off Olympiakos and AC Milan in 0-0 and 1-1 draws respectively.
Real Betis have a fairly solid pedigree at home in the Europa League as they’ve lost just twice in their last 13 matches on home turf in the competition, which also includes seven wins and four draws. A win for Real Betis tonight would eliminate Olympiakos, assuming AC Milan beat minnows F91 Dudelange tonight also.
Onto Olympiakos and the visitors sit on 7 points ahead of their trip to Sevilla to face Real Betis in a match where the Greek outfit desperately need to avoid defeat and perhaps pick up a point to keep them alive heading into match day 6.
Olympiakos eliminated Premier League side Burnley in the play-offs of this competition to qualify for the group stages, and they started their campaign off in reasonable fashion with a 0-0 draw at home to Real Betis but then suffered a 3-1 defeat away at AC Milan.
However, Olympiakos bounced back in style with 2-0 and 5-1 wins over Luxembourg minnows, F91 Dudelange to keep them in the race for a top two finish. The visitors have produced mixed results on their travels though in the Europa League so it’s anyone’s guess as to what might happen here.
The betting tips suggest that Real Betis should get the required win tonight.
