Mjallby vs Salzburg
Mjallby are enduring a disappointing run of results heading into this fixture, with just one win, four losses and one draw in their last five matches, although they will be boosted by claiming the victory last time out.
However, they remain considerable underdogs against the in-form Salzburg, who have won four and drawn two of their last six outings, and combined with their superiority on paper over Mjallby, the away side should win this first leg tie.
Salzburg to win, 1.80 – 5N9RW3W
Trabzonspor vs Ferencvarosi
Neither side are in ideal form heading into this game, with the hosts winning just one of their last five matches, alongside three defeats and one draw, while the visitors have won two of their last seven, alongside three draws and two losses.
However, Trabzonspor will draw confidence from having the home advantage in this first leg, where they have lost only one of their last seven competitive fixtures, including four victories, and with that in mind, we are backing the home side to secure the victory.
Trabzonspor to win, 1.67 – 5N9S2KC
Besiktas vs Kauno Zalgiris
Besiktas have won all of their last five matches heading into this clash, while Kauno Zalgiris have won only one of their last four outings, including two defeats and one draw during that period.
Furthermore, Besiktas boast the home advantage, where they have won all of their last four matches, and alongside being the clear favourites due to their much higher quality than the visitors, the hosts should secure a dominant win.
Besiktas to win, 1.14 – 5N9S8CV
Benfica vs Aarhus
Since losing their opening game of the 2026/27 season, Benfica have bounced back in superb fashion, winning four and drawing two of their last six matches, scoring an impressive 26 goals during that period.
In addition, Aarhus head into this game in disappointing standing, having lost each of their last two matches, including a 4-0 defeat to Sabah in the Champions League qualifiers and a 2-1 defeat to Viborg in the league.
Given Aarhus’s defeats, which have included over 2.5 goals, and Benfica’s remarkable winning momentum and goalscoring form, we are backing the hosts to record a commanding victory with over 2.5 goals scored.
Benfica & over 2.5 goals, 1.40 – 5N9SCTD
Combined Booking Code: 5N9SK62, Odds: 4.80
