Maccabi Haifa v Young Boys
Wednesday 20:00

FC Copenhagen sneaked past Rakow Czestochowa 1-0 to leave us short of goals in Poland last night.

We're staying with the Champions League playoffs today and heading to Israel to catch tonight's first leg between Maccabi Haifa and Switzerland's Young Boys.

Maccabi have come through three rounds of qualifying to reach this stage. So far at Sammy Ofer Stadium, they've beaten Hamrun Spartans 2-1, Sheriff 2-1 (4-1 aet) and Slovan Bratislava 3-1.

The hosts are favourites to win tonight, but we reckon both teams can get on the score sheet. Young Boys have been parachuted in to this stage of the competition, so their form guide is what they've been doing in the Swiss Super League since it restarted last month.

So far Raphael Wicky's men have seen both teams score in each of their first four league appearances home and away, with Young Boys scoring at least twice in 3/4. We'll take them to net again tonight and help get a fourth straight Maccabi CL home game to Over 2.5 Goals.

Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.84/5
