UEFA Europa League Top Games: Knockout Round Playoffs
SSSC Napoli +275 vs FC Barcelona -107
- When: Thursday, Feb. 17
Both squads are in decent form. Barcelona has won two straight with a draw. Napoli has won 3 straight with a draw.
No doubt, Barca has an edge because this happens on their pitch. But before dumping on Barcelona, it’s important to note that Napoli drew versus Inter Milano in their last. The road squad has a real shot to send Barcelona back to Camp Nou with a loss.
Soccer Pick: SSSC Napoli
Glasgow Rangers +1 ½ -135 vs Borussia Dortmund -1 ½ +103
- When: Thursday, Feb. 17
The Glasgow Rangers head to Dortmund on a 3-match winning streak. Not only has Glasgow won 3 straight, but they’ve done so in impressive fashion, outscoring their 3 opponents 10 goals to 0.
Dortmund has won 3-of-5. In their last match on Feb. 13, Dortmund dusted Union Berlin 3-0. As well as Glasgow has played, the Rangers haven’t faced a squad with the depth that Dortmund possesses. Erling Haaland and his mates score enough for the handicap victory.
Soccer Pick: Dortmund
GNK Dinamo Zagreb +1 ½ -136 vs Sevilla FC -1 ½ +104
- When: Thursday, Feb. 17
Dinamo Zagreb has won 3 with a loss and a draw in their last 5. On Dec. 9, in their last match, Dinamo upset West Ham United 1-0.
Beating West Ham impressed, but the road squad faces a top La Liga team on the road on Thursday. Sevilla shows 3 draws and a win in their last 4. The home team chalk offers much better odds on the handicap, making them the play.
Soccer Pick: Sevilla FC
Real Sociedad +295 vs RB Leipzig -114
- When: Thursday, Feb. 17
Sociedad has won 2, drawn twice, and lost once in their last 5. The road underdog heads into this off a victory, a 3-0 match versus Granada.
RB Leipzig is on fire. Leipzig has won 4-of-5. The lone loss happened against Bayern Munich and it was close, 3-2. Although Real Sociedad will play hard, the home team is the one to back.
Soccer Pick: RB Leipzig
Lazio Rome +265 vs FC Porto -105
- When: Thursday, Feb. 17
Lazio has won 3 with a loss and a draw in their last 5. The Serie A squad looks like a real challenger in this match. But unfortunately for their fans, Porto is vastly underrated.
Portuguese Liga produces plenty of quality squads. Porto is one of them. Porto made it all the way to the Champions League Semifinals last season. The home team will show why they’re one to fear to win it all.
Soccer Pick: FC Porto
Olympiacos Piraeus +1 ½ -161 vs Atalanta BC -1 ½ +121
- When: Thursday, Feb. 17
Atalanta has 3 draws and 2 losses in their last 5. Olympiacos shows 4 wins and a draw in their last 5.
Based on recent records, Olympiacos is the play at +1 ½. The odds, though, make the road team an underlay. Although Atalanta will have to pick it up to win by at least 2, at +121, they’re the play.
Soccer Pick: Atalanta BC
