4 Europa Conference League Quarter-Final Tips

Feyenoord welcome Slavia Prague to the De Kuip Stadium in Rotterdam this week as both sides look to take a step towards the Europa Conference League semi-finals.

Domestically, the hosts sit third, having won two, drawn once, and lost two of their past five, however home advantage could be crucial as Arne Slot’s side have suffered just two home defeats all season.

Visitors Slavia Prague are neck and neck in a title race with rivals Viktoria Plzen, having won three, drawn once and lost once in their past five league games. In both progressing through Group E, these sides have already faced each other twice, with hosts Feyenoord running out 2-1 winners when these two met in Rotterdam back in September.

For the hosts, Colombian forward Luis Sinisterra has been clinical all season, with eight goals already in Europe, as well as scoring in his last three Eredivisie fixtures. We expect a repeat of September, and for the home side to run out as winners this Thursday, with our tip Feyenoord to win and Sinisterra to score priced at 13/5.

Roma travel to Bodo/ Glimt this Thursday with hopes of bettering the 6-1 embarrassment that was inflicted on Jose Mourinho’s side when these two met here in October.

Roma are amongst the competition's favourites, finally finding some consistency in Serie A with four wins from their past five coming into this one. In the Conference League, besides the aforementioned drubbing in Norway, Roma are unbeaten in the competition, although needed a last-minute goal from forward Tammy Abraham to see off Vitesse in the last round.

After finishing second in Group C, the Norwegian side have progressed past Celtic and AZ Alkmaar to reach the quarter-finals, although may be tested with the return of their domestic league coinciding with the business of the Conference League.

Both sides have been entertainers in the competition, only failing to score once between them in a combined 16 games. Considering this, we’re expecting an action-packed game on Thursday, with our tip for both teams to score and over 2.5 goals priced at 1/1.

Britain’s last representatives in the Conference League, Leicester City, welcome Dutch side PSV to the King Power Stadium this Thursday.

After a draw at Old Trafford last weekend, the Foxes' record of three wins, a draw, and a loss in their last five league games will leave Brendan Rodgers's side confident they can get a result this week.

With four wins from five in the Eredivisie, PSV may be quietly confident of causing an upset, however being just four points behind league leaders Ajax, Roger Schmidt will need to manage his squad carefully to keep pressure on a domestic front.

Both sides have been good value for goals since dropping down from the Europa League, finding the net 10 times each in their four respective games. Considering this, we expect a highly competitive affair, although given the Foxes' recent form, at 3/1, our tip is Leicester to win and both teams to score.

Marseille welcomes PAOK to the Stade Velodrome as the hosts look to put one foot in the semi-finals of the Conference League.

With three wins on the bounce in Ligue 1, Jorge Sampaoli’s side will be high on confidence, with their recent good form leaving them second in the league. In Europe, after elimination from the Europa League, the French side eased by Qarabag 6-1 on aggregate in the knockout play-offs, before home and away 2-1 victories over Basel in the round of 16.

Visitors PAOK sit second in the Greek League, with three wins, a draw, and a loss in their past five, however, in being 11 points off league leaders Olympiacos look to be out of any potential title race. In finishing second in their Conference League group, PAOK edged by Midtiylland on penalties, before seeing off Belgian side Gent with home and away victories.

With home advantage and European pedigree on their side, we expect the hosts to run out winners in this one, with our tip Marseille to win 1-0, 2-0, or 2-1 at 6/4, a tip that would have landed in each of their last two Conference League games.
