The UEFA Europa League returns with all four quarter-final ties set to be decided as the eight remaining teams battle it out in their respective second leg fixtures for a coveted place in the semi-finals.
Read on for best booking codes to use at Bet9ja, with all odds available at the time of writing and in 90 minutes only unless stated otherwise:
Celta Vigo vs Freiburg
Freiburg dominated the first leg meeting at their home ground in Germany, securing a commanding 3-0 lead to take into the second leg at Celta Vigo’s home stadium in Spain.
While Celta Vigo will be boosted by the return to their stadium, they have struggled in recent weeks, with just two wins in their last eight games, alongside two draws and four defeats, while Freiburg have won four and lost one of their last five gamers.
Given Freiburg’s stronger form and clear superiority in the first leg, we are backing the German side to win once again and book their place in the semi-finals.
Freiburg to win, 3.70 – 5B5K7XG
Real Betis vs Braga
Although Real Betis have endured an underwhelming run of results in recent weeks, with just one win in their last 10 games, alongside three defeats and six draws, the home side will be confident of securing the victory in the second leg against Braga.
Braga, who have lost just one of their last five matches across all competitions, dominated possession in the first leg but looked vulnerable in defence, with Betis creating two big chances and taking 11 shots to Braga’s seven.
While the two eventually drew that clash, we are backing Betis to be even stronger at their home ground in the second leg, leading us to expect a win for the Spanish side.
Real Betis to win, 1.88 – 5B5KF7H
Aston Villa vs Bologna
Ollie Watkins has had a largely lacklustre season compared to his usual high standards, scoring just 12 goals in 45 matches across all competitions this season, but the forward has been more clinical in recent weeks, including a brace in the first leg against Bologna.
Aston Villa created a mass of chances in that first leg, helping them to secure the 3-1 win, and with the hosts expected to do more of the same in the second leg at their home ground, we are backing the forward to find the back of the net once again.
Ollie Watkins to score anytime, 2.40 – 5B5KLDT
Nottingham Forest vs Porto
Nottingham Forest may have escaped Portugal with a 1-1 draw against Porto, but the Tricky Trees have struggled at home in recent weeks, with Forest failing to win any of their last seven home games.
Meanwhile, Porto have remained undefeated in their last four away fixtures, with three wins and one draw, and given their dominant display in the first leg – creating five big chances and taking 16 shots to Forest’s six – we believe the Portuguese side will control this second leg tie and secure their progression into the next round.
Porto to qualify, 2.30 – 5B5KR3Q
