PAOK v Slovan Bratislava
Thursday 18:00
In Norway yesterday, Aalesunds scored early and often to deliver our handicap bet with something to spare. Lars Bohinen's hosts eventually beat Ham-Kam 5-2, sending us off to Greece with a spring in our step.
One of tonight's many Europa League qualifiers brings Slovan Bratislava to the home of the Greek champions, PAOK. The Slovakians won the first leg 1-0, but we like the odds-against price on Over 2.5 Goals in the second.
Going back to 2012, PAOK have delivered at least three match goals in 12/16 Champions League and Europa League qualifiers. The hosts have scored at least twice themselves in 12/16 at Toumba Stadium. Slovan Bratislava should not roll over now, however: since 2016, both teams have scored in 6/8 of these matches.
In the previous round, the Slovakians also won the first leg 1-0 at home, before travelling to Dundalk and notching a 3-1 success. Seven of their last eight away qualifiers in the Europa League have now served up Over 2.5 Goals and that's our bet for today.
