PFC Ludogorets Razgard +107 vs Vilnius FK Zalgiris +230

When: Thursday, August 25 at 10:00 am ET

Home underdog Vilnius has had a tough 3-match stretch. Bodo/Glimt blasted Vilnius 5-0 in the first league of a Champions League q ualifying aggregate.

Then Glimt closed the door on Vilnius in a 1-1 draw in the second leg. Ludogorets won the first match between these two. There’s no reason to believe the road chalk doesn’t take the second.

Soccer Pick: PFC Ludogorets Razgard

HJK Helsinki +390 vs Silkeborg IF -166

When: Thursday, August 25 at 10:00 am ET

Helsinki beat Silkeborg by a goal in the first leg. The venue changes, making Silkeborg the home team, which is why Helsinki is the dog.

But we shouldn’t write off Helsinki’s chances. Going back to a 2-0 victory over Maribor on August 4, Helsinki has won 3 straight. Silkeborg has lost 2-of-3. The road squad offers overlay odds.

Soccer Pick: HJK Helsinki

Malmo FF +131 vs Sivasspor +185

When: Thursday, August 25 at 11:00 am ET

Malmo blasted Sivasspor in the first leg. The road favorite beat the home squad 3-1. Malmo should beat their rivals in similar fashion on Thursday.

Sivasspor, a Turkish Super Lig squad, has lost 2-of-5 with 2 draws and a win. Malmo has won 2, drawn twice, and lost once in their last 5. Malmo is better. The road fave wins.

Soccer Pick: Malmo FF

FK Austria Wein +1.5 -142 vs Fenerbahce Istanbul -1.5 +103

When: Thursday, August 25 at 11:00 am ET

The road underdog has won their last couple of Austrian Bundesliga matches. Sandwiched between the 2 wins is an 0-2 loss versus Fenerbahçe.

The Turkish Super Lig squad is on a 3-match winning streak. During the streak, Fenerbahce beat their opponents a combined 12 goals to 2.

Asking Istanbul to beat their rivals by 2 goals in the second leg of a 2-match aggregate even though they’ve got a 2 goal lead is asking a lot. But the home chalk can get it done.

Soccer Pick: Fenerbahce Istanbul

Ferencvarosi Budapest +102 vs Shamrock Rovers +240

When: Thursday, August 25 at 1:00 pm ET

Playing at home in the first leg, Ferencvarosi squashed Irish Premier League squad Shamrock Rovers. Budapest blasted Shamrock 4 goals to 0.

The Rovers will play an aggressive match on Thursday. They won’t catch Ferencvarosi on the aggregate but they could pull off the win. Budapest will play a defensive game while Shamrock will go for it. A 1-goal home team victory is possible.

Soccer Pick: Shamrock Rovers

FC Zurich +185 vs Heart of Midlothian FC +135

When: Thursday, August 25 at 1:00 pm ET

In the first leg, Zurich showed they weren’t going to quietly bow out. The underdog road squad in this beat Heart of Midlothian 2-1.

Midlothian has a chance to turn the tables on their rivals. Because the match happens on Midlothian’s pitch, we must give the home team the benefit of the doubt. Heart of Midlothian wins.

Soccer Pick: Heart of Midlothian FC
