Porto are unbeaten in eight games and were unfortunate not to win the first leg. They face a Nottingham Forest side that have only won two of their last ten fixtures.

Villa have scored in six consecutive home games  and have conceded in four of those. Bologna have to go for it as they chase a two-goal deficit and they do have a good scoring record on their travels, having gone 19 trips without drawing a blank. The visitors will leave space to exploit as they commit men forward and there is a strong chance we’ll see goals at both ends at Villa Park, with the hosts expected to come out on top after beating Bologna three times over the last two seasons.

Strasbourg need to go on the offensive to overturn the first-leg deficit and played well in defeat last week. They should be able to get the win on the night, but they have conceded in four of their last five home games and red-hot Mainz are bound to get plenty of opportunities to get on the scoresheet.

Port Vale head into this game just 48 hours after their draw with Barnsley and the relegation-threatened visitors have conceded 15 goals in their last four away games. They have conceded three or more goals in three of these trips, while Peterborough have scored three or more in three of their last four at home, totalling 15 goals in this run.

Bromley remain top of the League Two table heading into the business end of the season, and they have taken 13 points from the last 15 available at home. They are yet to lose a home game in the league, while Cambridge United have failed to win their last four on the road.

Freiburg have won four of their last five games and with Celta Vigo having to go for it at some point, the visitors could benefit. They look overpriced to follow up their 3-0 win in the first leg with another success.

The Orlando Magic face the Philadelphia 76ers in a pivotal play-in matchup, but momentum favors Philadelphia after Orlando’s late season collapse. Despite missing Joel Embiid, the Sixers lean on Tyrese Maxey and home court. Orlando has the edge on paper, but inconsistency and potential mental carryover make them vulnerable.

LA is in a much better situation health wise. They just beat these Warriors on the final day of the regular season by 5 points without Kawhi Leonard. He’s expected back in the line-up, after resting for the past 5 days. We might see a highlight or two by Stephen Curry here, but I don’t think the Warriors have enough to compete. There’s a reason why this team finished 37-45 SU this season. I’ll be backing the Clippers to advance.

Fluminense were held to a draw at La Guaria last week and are winless in their last three games, while Independiente Rivadavia won their opener in the Copa Libertadores and have now won five on the spin.

Freiburg have won four of their last five games and with Celta Vigo having to go for it at some point, the visitors could benefit. They look overpriced to follow up their 3-0 win in the first leg with another success.

Real Betis have drawn six of their last ten games and there was very little to split these two teams in the first game so it may be worth backing Braga to avoid defeat in Spain.

Porto are unbeaten in eight games and were unfortunate not to win the first leg. They face a Nottingham Forest side that have only won two of their last ten fixtures.

These sides have met three times over the last two seasons and Villa lead the head-to-head 3-0, by an aggregate score of 6-1. A Bologna goal is expected but Villa can still win comfortably and after a 3-1 win in Italy last week they can finish the job on Thursday.

Port Vale head into this game just 48 hours after their draw with Barnsley and the relegation-threatened visitors have conceded 15 goals in their last four away games, losing each of them. They have conceded three or more goals in three of these trips, while Peterborough have scored three or more in three of their last four at home, totalling 15 goals in this run.

Strasbourg need to overcome two goal deficit if they are to have any chance of progressing. They played well in defeat during the first leg, having 66% possession and generating an xg of over one. With home advantage they are very likely to win this match, even if they do not qualify for the semi final.

Seven of Celta Vigo’s last ten games have gone over 2.5 goals and a repeat of that is fancied in this clash considering the stakes and the hosts’ defensive issues. Celta need to go on the attack to overturn a deficit and that should result in a high-scoring affair.

Fiorentina will need to come out on the front foot as they chase a 3-0 deficit, and they have scored in 11 of their last 13 home matches. They face a Crystal Palace side that have seen goals at both ends in seven of their last eight away from home.

Villa have scored in six consecutive home games  and have conceded in four of those. Bologna have to go for it as they chase a two-goal deficit and they do have a good scoring record on their travels, having gone 19 trips without drawing a blank. The visitors will leave space to exploit as they commit men forward and there is a strong chance we’ll see goals at both ends at Villa Park.

Three of Porto’s last eight games have been score draws and Nottingham Forest have drawn four of their last seven matches, including back-to-back 1-1 stalemates against Porto and Aston Villa.

Ollie Watkins scored twice in last week’s first leg and he looks the best option for an anytime effort on Thursday. Watkins failed to score in his first eight Europa League appearances this season but has three goals in his last three games in Europe.

Barnabas Varga has one goal in two Conference League appearances for AEK and he hit four goals in six games for Ferencvaros in the Europa League before his winter move, and he has two goals in his last five games across all competitions.

A first-half red card paved the way for a smash-and-grab victory for Atletico Madrid last week, but they have lost four of their last five games and their luck may run out on Tuesday. Barcelona arguably deserved to win the first leg and have five wins from their last six games.

Ipswich are vying for automatic promotion from the Championship and look good value for another three points against Portsmouth, who have taken only one point from their last five home games. The Tractor Boys are on a nine-game unbeaten run and have won three of their last four away days.

One point from the last 21 available have sent Wimbledon plummeting towards the relegation battle and their misery looks set to compound against promotion-chasing Stockport on Wednesday, who have won three and drawn two of their last five.

Real Betis and Braga proved a match for one another as they played out a 1-1 draw last week, and a similar outcome can be expected back in Spain. Betis have only won one of their last ten games and Braga have avoided defeat in 12 of their last 15 fixtures.

Le Mans are vying for Ligue 2 promotion and head into Friday’s tie unbeaten in seven. They haven’t lost at home since September and face a Clermont outfit that have lost five of their last seven on the road.

Lens’ Ligue 1 title charge has taken a hit after two defeats from their last three games, but they should get back on track against a Toulouse side that have lost four of their last five away games. Les Sang et Or have won all but two of their home games this season and should clinch the points on Friday.

Hoffenheim have only taken two points from the last 12 available and could be the latest to fall victim to Borussia Dortmund. Die Borussen have won four of their last five games and have only dropped two points from their last five Bundesliga trips.

Lille beat title-challengers Lens 3-0 at the weekend to make it three wins from their last four games and, with Champions League qualification at stake, they look a good bet to beat a Nice side that have lost four of their last five league fixtures.

Cremonese are sinking towards the Serie A relegation zone after losing nine of their last 11, and Torino could be the latest side to inflict defeat on La Cremo. The visitors have taken maximum points from three of their last four games and beat Pisa in their last away fixture.

Everton are unbeaten in the last three Merseyside derbies in front of their own fans and they can extend that streak in the first all-Liverpool clash at the Hill Dickinson Stadium. They have only lost one of their last five and favourites Liverpool face a tough midweek clash with PSG.
