After recording back-to-back winners late on in the Bernabeu on Wednesday night, Thursday’s Football Bet of the Day sees ms drop down a level to the Europa League, and I’ve highlighted a goals-based selection in one of the fixtures.
⚽️ Bodo/Glimt vs FC Twente (1-2 Aggregate)
🇪🇺 Europa League
⏰ Thursday 20 February, 17:45
Norwegian champions Bodo/Glimt welcome Dutch side FC Twente to the Aspmyra Stadium in the second leg of their Europa League playoff tie on Thursday night in a fixture that appeals to me for goals.
Kjetil Knutsen’s hosts have scored 29 goals across their 15 matches in Europe this season, with 19 (66%) of them coming across their seven home fixtures.
The Yellow Horde have found the back of the net in all bar two of their European contests, notching on multiple occasions in nine (60%) of them – including in 6/7 (86%) of them on home soil – and will be confident of breaching a Twente defence that has kept just three clean sheets across their 17 Eredivisie and European fixtures on the road this season.
Joseph Oosting’s visitors have scored 28 goals across their 17 Eredivisie and European contests on their travels this term, with seven (25%) of them coming across their five European encounters away from home.
The Tukkers have found the back of the net in all bar two of their away matches in the league and Europe – striking on multiple occasions in eight (47%) of them – and will look to trouble a Glimt backline that has recorded a solitary shutout across their past 12 European contests.
Bet of the Day
Bodo/Glimt’s opening 15 encounters in Europe this season have averaged 3.13 goals per game, with Over 2.5 Goals banking in 11 (73%) of them, whilst 11 (73%) have also produced goals at both ends, including 8/9 (89%) in the Europa League.
