BAYER LEVERKUSEN V RANGERS
5.55pm A very interesting tie to start the action on Day 2 of the Europa League comeback. Rangers find themselves 3-1 down after the first leg and have it all to do now away from home. It’s a slight positive that the Scottish season started at the weekend so Rangers got some competitive game time, but Leverkusen got to finish their season. Leverkusen are an excellent team to watch, and I can see plenty of goals here.
Over 2.5 goals is worth backing at 1.68. Rangers obviously have to attack being two goals behind and Leverkusen always play and open end-to-end game. They have been just as leaky at the back as impressive going forward, and Rangers have been impressive in the Europa League this season considering how far below the Scottish Premiership is compared to this level and they can definitely score here. Overs should be shorter for me and 1.68 is very appealing.
The Ultra Says:
Three points win Over 2.5 goals at 1.68 with BETDAQ Exchange.

SEVILLA V ROMA
5.55pm This tie never made it to the first leg so we have a winner takes all game this evening at a neutral venue. It should be an excellent tie. Both sides finished their domestic seasons very strongly, and although Juve had given up on Serie A it was still a big confidence boost for Roma to beat them 3-1 on the final day. Roma games have been highly entertaining towards the end of the season, with each of their last six pakced with goals and chances.
Sevilla employ very different tactics, they usually start a little cagey and then open up in the second half. Roma will have to pressure them early, but that will be tough to do with Sevilla unbeaten in 15 La Liga games. That run goes back to before lockdown, and they did have a fair share of draws after lockdown. They drew five games from 11 matches after lockdown, and while I feel that they will do the business here, I can easily see Roma scoring given how good they are going forward. Both Teams To Score is a good value bet at 1.85 in what should be an excellent game.

Two points win Both Teams To Score at 1.85 with BETDAQ Exchange.

WOLVES V OLYMPIAKOS
8pm A huge game for Wolves and they will be happy to have home advantage. They managed a 1-1 draw away from home in the first leg, and now have the advantage heading into tonight. They finished the Premier League season slightly out of form, with only two wins from their last six and they came against a poor Crystal Palace side and an Everton side with nothing to play for. Olympiakos have generally been poor away from home in Europe, but they do offer a lot going forward and Wolves will have to play well to stop them scoring.
I don’t think there’s any doubt that Wolves can score. Olympiakos concede an average xG of over 2 away from home in Europe. Wolves are 1.75 to win while Both Teams To Score is 2.22. I have to say I much rather the Both Teams To Score bet, although Olympiakos are poor away from home they do create chances and they have to score here. Wolves would love a tight game, but with Olympiakos having to attack I like the BTTS option.
The Ultra Says:
One point win Both Teams To Score at 2.22 with BETDAQ Exchange.
