UEFA Europa League Round of 16: Leg 1 Thursday Matches to Wager On | Soccer Betting

West Ham United +270 vs Sevilla FC +109

When: Thursday, March 10th

Sevilla is in better form. One of La Liga Primera Divisions’ top squads, Sevilla shows a single loss in their last 5. The loss happened to Croatian squad Dinamo Zagreb.

A 3-1 win against Dinamo in the first leg, meant Sevilla had breathing room in the second, which is why the La Liga squad dropped the match. But although Sevilla is in better form, West Ham has excuses for their last couple of losses.

There’s no shame in the March 5, 0-1 loss to Liverpool. The 3-1 loss to Southampton happened in an English FA Cup match. The odds make the Premier League squad the play.

Soccer Pick: West Ham United

Bayer Leverkusen +260 vs Atalanta BC -105

When: Thursday, March 10th

Both teams have won 3 in their last 5. Atalanta gets the benefit of the doubt because this happens on their pitch.

But the Serie A favorite has lost a couple while Leverkusen drew in their last. We wouldn’t read much into the road team’s draw if not for the fact it happened in a 1-1 match against Bayern Munich.

Leverkusen is playing well while Atalanta must reverse form because they lost their last match to AS Roma. Give the road team a chance.

Soccer Pick: Bayer Leverkusen

AS Monaco +160 vs SC Braga +175

When: Thursday, March 10th

AS Monaco is the slight chalk because they play in French Ligue 1. Let’s be frank. Of the top European soccer leagues, the Premier, Serie A, La Liga, the Bundesliga, and Ligue 1, the French League has the fewest good teams.

Monaco is one of the better teams in a mediocre soccer league.

But SC Braga is an okay team in the Portuguese League. Porto is the top team in that league, and Porto has a 21 points lead over Braga. Still, this happens on Braga’s pitch. So the best Monaco will do is force a draw.

Soccer Pick: Draw

Galatasaray +2 ½ -151 vs FC Barcelona -2 ½ +115

When: Thursday, March 10th

Galatasaray heads into this after one of their worst performances of the season. The team from Istanbul fell by 2 goals to Turkish League rival Konyaspor in their last.

Barca is on a 4-match winning streak. 3-of-4 victories were by at least 2 or more goals. Barcelona can cover this handicap. Barca -2 ½ is the best play.

Soccer Pick: FC Barcelona

FK Crvena Zvezda Belgrade +370 vs Glasgow Rangers -136

When: Thursday, March 10th

Belgrade drew with Braga in their last. Before the draw, the dog in this had beaten Ludogorets twice, and drew and lost to Midtjylland in a couple of matches.

Glasgow shows 3 draws and a couple of wins in their last 5. One of the draws was a 2-2 match versus Dortmund. The Rangers head into this on a 2-match winning streak. They should take this no problem.

Soccer Pick: Glasgow Rangers
