Now, let's move on to the matches. So, the first encounter on our list is Salzburg hosting Milan on home soil. Look, gentlemen, the bookies are setting the Italians as quite heavy favorites here. And on paper, that is certainly true, but they are ignoring one thing: the Europa League is not a priority for Milan, as Amorim has already stated. In the first round, the Milanese used a large-scale squad rotation at home against Benfica and ended up losing. So, in this upcoming clash, there's a 90 percent chance the Italians will start with far from their main lineup. In turn, for Salzburg, the Europa League is, on the contrary, definitely a top priority. Plus, Milan itself is coming to visit. Therefore, Salzburg will be giving 300% effort here. And considering that the Italians concede to everyone, even when playing with their main squad, I expect the Austrians to score at least one goal on their home turf. My pick is Individual Total Over 1, with a possible push, on Salzburg at odds around 1.85. That is my primary option for your consideration. And as a value bet, I suggest checking "1X" (Austrians not to lose) at odds around 2.05. Next, we head to Poland, where Lech will be hosting Bayer at home. But here, gentlemen, it will most likely be the exact same story as the match we just analyzed. The "Pharmacists" will likely rotate their squad. They have a very tight schedule. And the hosts will be giving it their all. Based on the fact that Lech, just like Salzburg, plays an exclusively attacking style, I expect them to upset the Germans at least once. Moreover, Bayer conceded three goals away against Mainz in their first match after the break. And yes, gentlemen, I'll add that both Milan and Bayer have a bunch of national team players who have essentially just returned and are physically exhausted. Accordingly, my pick is Individual Total Over 1 on Lech at odds around 1.75. That is my option for your consideration. Next, we move to France, where Lyon will be hosting Crystal Palace on home soil. So, regarding this matchup, guys, both clubs will most likely resort to at least a partial rotation of their squads, as the Europa League is not a top priority for them. Overall, both clubs are focused on the attack. If we, gentlemen, look at the screens, we will see that the opponents often play for the over. I would also note that all rotation players always want to prove themselves to the coach, and often such matches turn out to be high-scoring. Therefore, guys, I suggest considering a simple total over 2.5 goals for the upcoming matchup at odds around 1.70. Next, we head to Belgium, where Union Saint-Gilloise will host Real Sociedad on home soil. The situation here for us is as follows. The Spaniards are far from shining at the start of the season and are conceding from everyone, and far from just one goal. I will also note that Sociedad will most likely use at least a partial rotation of the squad. They have a lot of injured players, especially in the team's defensive line. Plus, a very tight schedule. Union is far from a pushover on their home turf. And, of course, the Europa League is a priority for the Belgians. The team also has squad losses, but Union will certainly not be lacking in motivation at home. Of course, in the upcoming matchup, the most promising option would probably be at least one goal from the hosts, but the odds on totals, gentlemen, are incredibly low. Therefore, I have settled on a Draw No Bet on the Belgians at odds around 1.80. I repeat, gentlemen, the Spaniards will most likely arrive with a far from full-strength squad. And the hosts certainly won't be lacking in motivation here. Next, we move on to Portugal, where Benfica will host Celtic on home soil. So, guys, the Portuguese Eagles are deservedly set as favorites in the upcoming matchup. As their first match against Milan showed, the team is serious about the Europa League. In turn, the Scots are extremely unstable at the start of the season. In their last four matches across all tournaments, they have lost three times. Moreover, they lost at home to Ferencváros 1-3 in the first round of the Europa League. In short, gentlemen, the Portuguese should, of course, win the match at home, but it's clear that the odds on their victory are pathetic. Therefore, I will offer the following line for your consideration. Benfica to win with a total under 4.5 goals at odds around 1.75. Regarding the total under, I will add that in matches involving both teams this season, more than four goals were rarely scored. Next, we travel to Croatia, where Dinamo Zagreb will host Belgium's Anderlecht on home soil. Overall, gentlemen, in terms of level, these are two fairly equal teams. Zagreb is unstable at the start of the season, both scoring and conceding on a regular basis. Anderlecht, in turn, is in better form, but will naturally be playing away. If we look at the screens, we will see that both opponents often play quite high-scoring matches. Summing up everything said above, gentlemen, I suggest a fairly standard approach to the upcoming matchup: consider both teams to score at decent odds around 1.70. Guys, I'm reminding you that today an accumulator for the Europa League with good odds will be posted on our Telegram channel. Plus, several Conference League matches will also be analyzed. And you can always watch all these matches in absolutely free, high-quality streams. The link to Telegram is always in the description and comments. Come join us. Next, we move to Spain, where Celta will host Juventus on their home turf. I will be quite brief regarding this matchup, gentlemen. Both clubs will use at least a partial rotation of their squads here. Overall this season, the opponents have played low-scoring games, but given that many substitutes will appear on the pitch, this match will likely be end-to-end. Every rotation player wants to prove to the coach that they deserve a starting spot, so they will give it their all, 100%. Therefore, gentlemen, I expect to see at least two goals scored by the teams in this upcoming clash. Total over two, with a possible refund. This is my main option for your consideration, at odds around 1.55. As a value bet, I suggest taking a look at both teams to score at odds around 1.85. With the main option, we can always cover a 2-0 score for either side or a high-scoring draw, like 1-1. Now, let's move on to the final match today, where Hoffenheim will host Besiktas at home. So, guys, pay attention to the screens. Hoffe is simply hitting rock bottom at the start of the season. The team has lost five out of six matches, including European competitions. Most importantly, in absolutely all of those games, the Germans conceded at least two goals. In turn, the Turks are in much better form than the hosts. They beat Fenerbahce 1-2 away, which is worth a lot. They crushed Marseille 4-1 at home in the first round. They score against everyone, and often more than one goal. And so, in the upcoming clash, I expect Besiktas to organize at least one goal against this crisis-hit Hoffe. I’m taking individual total over one for the visitors with a possible refund at odds around 1.50. This is my option for your consideration. Let me know, gentlemen, what you think about the upcoming matches and don
