The Europa League and Europa Conference League semi-finals conclude later tonight, leaving plenty of room for entertainment as the eight teams battle to secure their spots in the final of the respective European competitions.
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 otherwise stated:
Aston Villa vs Nottingham Forest
Nottingham Forest head into this second leg with a narrow 1-0 advantage following the first-leg, and the Tricky Trees will be confident of retaining that lead to secure their place in the final given their fantastic recent form.
Forest are unbeaten in their last 10 matches across all competitions, including five consecutive wins heading into this game, while the Villans have lost all of their last three matches coming into the second leg.
Although Aston Villa do have the home advantage in this second leg, we believe Nottingham Forest’s superior form and narrow lead will help them to qualify for the final.
Nottingham Forest to qualify, 1.78 – 5DBTNYH
Freiburg vs Braga
Braga secured a 2-1 victory in the first leg in Portugal, leaving them with a narrow advantage heading into the second leg meeting in Germany, where Freiburg will be relying on home advantage to get them back into the tie.
However, Freiburg were certainly second best in that first leg, including having just 41% possession, and they also head into this game without a win in any of their last four matches, and with that in mind, we are backing Braga to win here.
Braga to win, 4.60 – 5DBVXHG
Crystal Palace vs Shakhtar Donetsk
Ismaila Sarr has emerged as a heroic figure for Crystal Palace in recent seasons, including scoring eight goals throughout their European campaign as the Eagles now sit on the verge of reaching the Conference League final.
The winger, who scored in the 3-1 first-leg win, was rested in the defeat to Bournemouth at the weekend, only featuring in the second half, and combined with his goalscoring exploits throughout the season, we are predicting Sarr to score once again against Shakhtar later today.
Ismaila Sarr to score anytime, 2.20 – 5DBW3ZM
Strasbourg vs Rayo Vallecano
Rayo Vallecano took a deserving 1-0 lead from the first leg, having taken 24 shots to their opponents’ five, but a significantly tougher second-leg is expected in their trip to face Strasbourg in France.
The French side will feel much more confident at home and will have to be considerably more attack-minded if they are to get back in the game, meaning more opportunities will also be made for Vallecano to counter forward.
As a result of a more open game expected, we are predicting that this match will deliver plenty of chances and over 1.5 goals.
Over 1.5 goals, 1.29 – 5DBWCYY
Overall Booking Code: 5DBWK8C, Odds: 22.73
