There are 24 matches taking place in the Europa League on Thursday night and it can be a bit of a head-scratcher when looking for value in so many games. We’ve found five of the best where the stats look good for a Both Teams to Score Acca. Read on to find out which matches we’re predicting will have goals.
5.55pm: AC Milan v Sparta Prague – BTTS: YES
Milan are in mighty form this season, sitting pretty at the top of Serie A on 13 points after five matches. They’ve been in great goal-scoring form too, netting 12 over those five in the league and 10 over their five Europa League qualification matches. Sparta Prague too are in good nick, winning all six of their league matches so far this season, scoring 20 and conceding six.
While Milan’s goals against record has been good this season, they’ve conceded five over their three most recent at home and Sparta have scored 12 over their three most recent trips away. With the pair in a clinical mood we should see both scoring/
For a bit of extra vlaue, with Milan in such formidable form it could be worth backing them to win as well.

5.55pm: Antwerp v Tottenham BTTS: YES
Antwerp have started their season very well, scoring 21 and conceding 14 while winning six, drawing two and losing two. Spurs’ form isn’t quite as good with three wins, two draws and one loss but their scoring record is the best in the Premier League so far with 16 goals and eight conceded.
Both Teams to Score has landed in all five of Antwerp’s previous home matches and has landed in four out of five previous away matches for Tottenham too. Spurs should come out on top here but Antwerp’s record is so good at home that we’re more confident backing Both Team to Score here.
5.55pm: Gent vs Hoffenheim BTTS: YES
Gent are having a miserable season. They’ve won just three of their 10 league matches and have lost all of the other seven. However, their scoring record is mighty, having scored 15 over those 10 matches. Their Europa League home scoring record is very good too. Over the last two seasons they’ve scored 19 during their seven most recent home matches in the competition.
Hoffenheim aren’t in the best of shape either with two wins, one draw and two losses but they’ve scored nine over those five matches and got their Europa League campaign off to a good start with a 2-0 win last week. They rarely go an away match without a goal, and they’ve now scored at least one in 14 out of 15 recent away matches. We’re backing Both Teams to Score here given those stats.

8pm: Molde v Rapid Vienna – BTTS: YES
Molde came from behind to beat Ireland’s Dundalk last week and over their six most recent home Europa League matches Both Teams to Score has landed. They’ve got their scoring boots on at home as well, netting 11 over their five most recent at the Aker Stadion. Rapid Vienna’s six most recent away matches have all seen Both Teams to Score landing and it has also come through in four out of six of their most recent away Europa League matches.
8pm: Real Sociedad v Napoli – BTTS: YES
Both teams come into this match in great form. Sociedad are top of La Liga on 14 points after seven matches while Napoli are second in the Serie A with 11 points from five matches. Both are in great goal-scoring form too with 14 goals each in their leagues.
After losing their opening Europa League match last week, Napoli are going to have to attack here and have scored in 11 out of 14 previous away matches in all competitions. Sociedad have a decent clean sheet record at home but against a free-scoring Napoli side looking for a win here they’re going to find it tough to keep them scoreless. We’re again backing Both Teams to Score here.
