Another day with a lot of surprises in Europe competitions ? I say yes.
I would say that Olimpiakos and Monaco won't win today and most likely will be defeated. I also like the chances for Lazio to get 3 points today and most likely they will take 3 points.
Also picking more than 70% of the games with under 3.5 goals might be a good opportunity for a winning ticket but then I remind myself that first games in the groups are always tricky and hard to guess.

Had a blast with Champions League opening day, so am definitely looking in tonight's clashes for some tasty encounters with high odds.
Zurich over 8/1 and Bodoe/Glimt are over 6/1. Plenty of other underdogs too but I don't know if I should bet on total unknowns. Arsenal and Eindhoven are the ones I'd bet against, even though they do seem to have a far better team on paper.
What do you guys think?

After losing to Manchester United, Arsenal will look to win convincingly. Given that the next game in the Premier League is at home for them and not against the strongest opponent (Everton), it makes no sense for Arsenal to save energy. In the national championship, out of 7 games, Zurich managed to make 2 draws and lost 5 games - there is not a single prerequisite for them to beat Arsenal.

I find the odds of the Ferencvaros - Trabzonspor match quite interesting. Honestly I think that Trabzonspor are a far better team than their opponent. I'm aware that Trabzonspor's recent results aren't satisfying at all. After losing points in four matches in a row they finally won a match in their league. Maybe this result could be a motivation for them to prepare well for this match. They are going to play against each other for the first time in their histories. Trabzonspor should be able to make use of their squad quality and win this match somehow. Maybe an odd like 3.25 is not credible but it is a nice choice for the people who will take a risk today.
Manchester United - Real Sociedad is the most impressive match of the day. Manchester United has a 1.62 odd for their win but I can't be very sure of it for now. Because Real Sociedad are a really unpredictable team in the Europa League. Manchester United are fully focused on getting positive results in the EPL these days so I wonder how much Erik ten Hag will care about this match. Maybe he would rotate the squad a little. Both teams to score might be a good option @1.81.

I'm thinking about a multi consisting of Fenerbahce win @1.65, Arsenal win @1.32 and Freiburg win @1.35.
Maybe you might think that Fenerbahce is a risky choice. However I don't think so this time. Because there is a big difference between the Fenerbahce at the beginning and the one now. While they are this much effective in scoring goals I don't want to miss this chance. Dynamo Kyiv don't have a good squad anymore. I don't think that they can repeat their success against Fenerbahce here again. Fenerbahce would have their revenge on them by a decent win. When it comes to Arsenal and Freiburg, they have really comfortable games. I even find their odds higher than expected. Neither Zurich nor Qarabag can steal any point from them normally.

I don't think Fenerbahce is risky at all
They're a good club, and that's actually fair odds I think. BTTS might be even better value. I definitely think we shouldn't rule out Ukrainian clubs either. Just look at what happened in Champions League! All their stars left so only local players but they're so hungry they fight for every ball.
Qarabag are known for surprises too though, so I wouldn't bet my life on any guaranteed outcome lol

Tomorrow in the Europa League, the most expected match is probably Manchester United vs Real Sociedad... Both clubs are not doing too well in the domestic leagues to put it mildly, but I don't understand why bookmakers are favouring Man U, giving odds of 1.74 for their win... It seems to me that in tomorrow's match these teams have the same chances of winning and Man U are a completely different club now than they were a few years ago...

Arsenal will win this easily, man, no doubt about it. Not that I look down on Zuerich but they have been playing very good football. It is not for nothing they are the top favorite to win Europa along with United if they keep the way they play now.
Prize of Champions League is also too good to miss for these teams. I'll follow up my acca from here shortly tomorrow

I got ripped by Inter on my La Liga multibet hehe, but it's okay as I won the freebet from Sportsbet promos playing random teams in Conference/Europa.
I know it's not really this topic but feel less and less confident about Atletico who I second support, and jury still out on my own team, but for sure Real look steady as usual!
Maybe I'll stick to Europa betting

Very diverse group composition. Some look like Champions League groups (judging by the first two teams as group A), and some (like group D) look like the Conference League. Assuming that everyone will play with the same motivation, the outcomes of many groups are quite easy to predict, but as we saw last season, the teams play randomly, so I would rather bet on the underdogs than on the favorites in the group stage. I mean not the result of the group but individual games.
In group C I think Roma and Real Betis will qualify whereas other groups is open for any of the clubs to qualify.
I can actually agree with all your predictions.
FC Sheriff lost a lot of good players from last season and they don't have such a strong team this season. I don't expect them to make a good result again this season.
I believe that Braga, Lazio, Olympiacos and Monaco are also big favorites to pass their groups in this competition, but of course, surprises are always possible.
A very interesting and uncertain competition awaits us.

After having a great season in the La Liga with Pellegrini we are going to watch Betis in the Europa League. They missed the Champions League opportunity slightly too. I only see Roma in their group which can make things more difficult for them. Betis are going to be one of the teams I will follow closely. Because they are also one of the favourites for the title. As it isn't easy for them to qualify for the CL in the La Liga they can take this tournament very seriously to join the CL groups directly.
Arsenal and Manchester United are going to be the biggest candidates for winning the title. Arsenal have already started great to the EPL. Manchester United are newly recovering after the Liverpool win and they really need to reach the CL at the end of this season. The third biggest favourite is Roma of course. It was a great run in the Europa Conference League with Mourinho last season.

In the group stage, Fenerbahce has been placed in one of the best groups I think it can be placed in. Especially being in the same group with Dinamo kiev has become more meaningful after Jorge Jesus' statements. I think Jorge Jesus will prepare harder for the Dinamo kiev match. Fenerbahçe does not have a match in the league that week. This news increases the importance of this match.
Yes, it's funny how Fenerbahce and Dynamo will meet again in LE. By the way, group B turned out to be very equal in strength, Larnaca did not look bad in the qualifying matches, I think that there may not be any clear leader in this group until the very end. I want to believe that Dynamo will have the strength to get out of this group in the playoffs. In other groups, Manchester United, Arsenal and Roma appear to be clear favorites in their groups.

I'd like to share my opinion about the groups of the teams in my country. I mean Fenerbahce and Trabzonspor.
Fenerbahce meet Dynamo Kyiv again after the unpleasant rendezvous in the Champions League. However I strongly believe that things will be different in this group. It was only the start of the season when Fenerbahce were eliminated by them. Now Jorge Jesus has brought the team to a better level. We are watching a team that are very productive about scoring lately. It's time to have revenge on Dynamo Kyiv also. Rennes are the toughest team to defeat for them but I think Fenerbahce can get four points from them at least. They can finish the group as the leader.
When it comes to Trabzonspor's group it is even easier. Monaco are the only team that can make difficulties for them. But they haven't started the season nicely in the Ligue 1 also. Trabzonspor should also be able to advance to next stage by finishing second in the worst case.

interesting draw today, United with Sociedad, Sheriff and Omonia, but there are groups where there will be wholeround fight, like Zvezda, Monaco, Ferencvaros and Trabzonspor, probably strongest group
Lazio had solid draw, as Roma as well and Arsenal, should not focus much into group stage

Fenerbahçe defeated Austria wien 4-1 at home and qualified for the groups. They won with a dominant and beautiful game. But I still think the defenders are not good enough. There will be more serious and stronger opponents in the group. The performance against them will reveal everything
August 25, 2022, 04:51:22 PM
I think that we have started to see the Jorge Jesus effect on Fenerbahçe. 
Because tonight was amazing for them. There was a great team play above all else which helped them give nearly zero chances to their opponent. The productiveness of the team is increasing day by day. This is what Fenerbahce fans want to see from them because the team were searching for a good scorer for a long time to fix this problem. But it's getting better already now. After adding Maxi Gomez also to the team they would have even a more reliable attacking line hopefully.

They shouldnt have been knocked out by Dinamo Kiev but it was those early games so anything can happen. Now once he coached them for a few months they look really good both in europe and in their own league

Olympiacos are far ahead from their old strength seemingly. Because bookmakers were favouring them to eliminate Apollon easily but we are neary in the penalty shoot-outs. Carrying the match there can be very advantageous for Apollon as they can have a bigger chance for the group stage. Even if Olympiacos somehow make it to the groups I don't expect them to go too far in the tournament.
Congrats to Fenerbahce for qualifying for the group stage but Sivasspor unfortunately failed. Malmo made use of being a very experienced team in this kind of tournaments to eliminate them. Good luck to Sivasspor in the Conference League from now on.
