OFI Crete vs Bayer Leverkusen
Bayer Leverkusen have produced a number of hugely entertaining matches at the beginning of this 2026/27 season, including seven of their nine matches across all competitions containing over 2.5 goals.
Bayer Leverkusen also head into this match as the overwhelming favourites against the underdogs OFI Crete, with the German side expected to dominate proceedings and secure a comfortable win.
As a result, we are predicting Bayer Leverkusen to win, and in pattern of their season to date, over 2.5 goals to be scored.
Bayer Leverkusen & over 2.5 goals, 1.48 – 5WNDJRX
Juventus vs Stade Rennes
Juventus have scored 16 goals and conceded nine goals in nine matches across all competitions this season, averaging at 2.77 goals per 90 minutes, while Stade Rennes have scored 17 goals and conceded 15 goals in nine matches across all competitions, averaging at 3.55 goals per 90.
Given the vulnerability of both teams in defence, combined with their ability to get on the scoresheet against opposition sides, we are predicting this Europa League encounter to deliver a thrilling affair with over 2.5 goals in total.
Over 2.5 goals, 1.68 – 5WNDMH9
Bournemouth vs AC Milan
Bournemouth have managed to score in nine of their 10 matches across all competitions at the beginning of this 2026/27 season, only failing in a 1-0 defeat against Liverpool, while AC Milan have scored in eight of their nine matches this term, only failing in a 2-0 loss to Benfica.
As both sides have demonstrated their superb attacking quality and ability to get on the scoresheet regardless of the eventual outcome, we are predicting that Bournemouth and AC Milan will each get a goal in this encounter.
GG, 1.59 – 5WNDSD7
Lillestrom vs Real Sociedad
Mikel Oyarzabal has had a rather slow start to the season for Real Sociedad, failing to score in any of his first 10 appearances for his club at the beginning of the term before finally finding the back of the net on the weekend.
The striker scored a brace in the 5-2 La Liga triumph over Malaga at the weekend, meaning Oyarzabal heads into this competition, in which he scored five goals in 12 appearances in 2024/25, having finally found his shooting boots.
As Lillestrom have already shown their defensive weakness in this competition, including conceding twice in the surprise 2-1 defeat to Portuguese second-tier side Torreense, we are backing Oyarzabal’s quality to help get him on the scoresheet.
Mikel Oyarzabal to score anytime, 2.15 – 5WNDW5S
Overall Booking Code: 5WNDZQS, Odds: 8.50
