@Footy_Tipster gives his best predictions ahead of this round of fixtures in the UEFA Europa League..
The UEFA Europa League returns this week with clubs from across Europe looking to fulfil their European dreams with the journey to Istanbul continuing here for two sides.
Celtic have a mountain to climb on Thursday night, needing to win by a three goal deficit just to keep their European dreams alive, they travel to the MHPArena to take on Stuttgart in this UEFA Europa League second leg.
Now, let’s take a closer look at some Europa League odds and betting angles for this play-off fixture:
Stuttgart v Celtic – Thursday, 5.45pm
Punters can bet on Stuttgart v Celtic with William Hill
- Stuttgart have all but confirmed their spot in the last sixteen of the UEFA Europa League with a 4-1 victory in the first leg against Celtic whilst they followed that up with a thrilling 3-3 encounter with Heidenheim in the Bundesliga.
- Stuttgart games have been entertaining of late having seen at least three or more goals in each of the last five outings across all competitions, whilst they’ve scored at least three goals in six of their last eight games, you can back the German side to score over 2.5 goals with the leading bookmaker at 21/20.
- Stuttgart have never lost a home major European match against a Scottish side (W4 D2), winning 3-2 against Celtic in February 2003 after coming from 2-0 down, they should extend that run in this one.
——————————– - Things are starting to turn a little sour at Celtic right now, their 4-1 defeat in the first leg was followed up with a shock 2-1 defeat on home soil in the William Hill Premiership against Hibs on Sunday, as they lose ground in the title race.
- Celtic themselves have seen seven of their last nine games in all competitions produce at least three goals, with Martin O’Neill’s side a huge 40/1 to take this game to penalties and progress with William Hill.
- The Hoops have won one of their last seventeen away major European matches (D6 L10) while in the knockout stages they’re winless in 12 (D3 L9) since a 1-0 win at Boavista in April 2003 during Martin O’Neill’s first spell in charge.
Prediction: Stuttgart To Win & 4 Or More Goals (6/4), Stuttgart 3-1 Celtic (9/1).
