FOUR teams have already qualified for the knockout stages of the Europa League and may others will join them in the penultimate round of group matches on Thursday night.

Red Bull Salzburg, Dynamo Moscow, Fiorentina and Legia Warsaw are all certain of their places in the last 32 are looking to seal first place in their respective groups.

Celtic could join Salzburg in the progressing from Group D with victory over the Austrians in Glasgow. A draw or defeat may also be enough, if Dinamo Zagreb fail to win at Astra Giurgiu.

Dynamo Moscow will secure top spot in Group E with victory over Panathinaikos while PSV Eindhoven will follow them in advancing with a victory or draw against Estoril Praia.

Fiorentina play at Guingamp bidding to seal Group K with the French side seeking to beat PAOK to the runners-up spot with Dinamo Minsk already eliminated.

Trabzonspor will qualify behind Legia Warsaw in Group L with a win against Metalist Kharkiv but a draw may also be enough.

Roberto Mancini's Inter Milan require a win at home to Dnipro to secure first place in Group F but a draw will make sure of qualification. However, on his 50th birthday the new boss has made it clear he wants three points.

Tottenham and Beskitas are in line to qualify from Group C. Defeat Partizan and Spurs advance but a draw or loss may still be enough if Asteras Tripolis fail to beat Beskitas.

Everton will qualify with victory at Wolfsburg in Group H while a draw or defeat could be sufficient if there is no winner between Krasnodar and Lille. The Germans could also advance with victory or a draw.

Napoli will advance from Group I with victory at Sparta Prague but could also go through with a draw or loss if Young Boys lose to already-eliminated Slovan.

Sparta are reliant on beating the Italians and Young Boys slipping up to advance prior to the final round of matches.

Dynamo Kiev and Steaua Bucharest could both advance from Group J while a win for Sevilla at Feyenoord will take them through as winners of Group G.

Borussia Monchengladbach will win Group A with victory at Villarreal and Club Brugge will win Group B with a victory at Torino, but draws could also secure their qualification.

Spurs will be without Emmanuel Adebayor, Younes Kaboul and Etienne Capoue who missed Sunday's win at Hull as well as injured Andros Townsend, Nacer Chadli, Danny Rose and Kyle Walker. Federico Fazio is suspended and youngsters Dominic Ball and Harry Winks are in the squad.

Wolfsburg have won 10 of 13 fixtures in all competitions since being thrashed at Goodison. Steven Naismith, Leighton Baines, Gareth Barry, Darron Gibson and Steven Pienaar haven't travelled to Germany and John Stones, Antolin Alcaraz, Bryan Oviedo and Arouna Kone are still injured.

My focus has been on the Celtic game and while the sides drew 2-2 in Austria I'm tempted by Red Bull are 6-4 at Betfred.

The Austrians have slammed in 46 goals in 14 games and a tournament high 13 in the group stage and their firepower is impressive. Make over 2.5 goals your best bet at 8-15 with McBookie but as it's short consider over 3.5 goals at 13-10 with the same firm.

Both teams to score is expected so pays no bigger than 9-20 at Winner.com. Celtic will of course be without John Guidetti so consider Kris Commons to score at 15-8 with Betfred.

Red Bull's dangerman is Jonathan Soriano – the only man to score more league goals in 2014 than Cristiano Ronaldo – and he is 11-8 at Betfred to score and 5-1 at Paddy Power to net first.

Soriano to net is my Super Single in Thursday's Daily Record but I won't choose the site's top tips until studying team news in the morning.

    Mr Fixit,
    Give me an idea of what to do…
    My cash out is £71 and got Spurs and St Etienne to win on Thursday. What do u make of the French outfit? I did not check the form prior to this game and now I see that they drew 4 in a row and was held to a 0-0 stalemate in Azerbaijan…!

  2. tam 9 years ago

    What will your bet return if these two win?

  3. Craig Alves 9 years ago

    Commons won’t score tonight, not for me as he looks disinterested this season and will definitely be away in January. Shame considering he was last years top scorer from midfield but I’d like him to go to Bolton and rejoin Lenny

  4. Saheel 9 years ago

    So the bet was placed 2 weeks ago with all favs winning. Bet will return 350.
    I got Spurs and St etienne tonight + Real Madrid win v Malaga + at madrid win v deportivo la coruna + Juve win v Torino on Saturday. Almost there… :-)) cash out £70

  5. anton 9 years ago

    Depends what your return would have been without spurs and st etienne.

  6. tam 9 years ago

    Saheel, not a huge amount you can do at this point with so many other games still to come.
    I suppose to guarantee returns you could put womething on on karabakh and partisan +1 singles 2/1 and 11/4 And the double at 10/1 to cover your outlay.
    If you get nothing back on them then at least you’ll have a bigger cashout amount and your line will still be running

  7. Mark 9 years ago

    Anyone think that 15/4 for Celtic over 6 corners is a good bet this is with William hill.

  8. sonnyboy 9 years ago

    I like to try and get an early result under my belt with these Euros, so I think I’ll start with Moscow Dynamo to win. Damn cold in Russia and I don’t think them Greek lads – the whipping boys of the group – will like it!!

    Will check team news for later: on first impressions I like the look of Inter, D.Kiev, PSV win/draw away and Harry Kane! Napoli game could be interesting but wanna see if Hamsik, Callejon and Higuain all start as Rafa is a tinkerman!

  9. Attila 9 years ago

    Saheel, just go with the bet, ride it out. What was the point of doing a big acca like that if your not up for the buzz of seeing if it actually wins?! What was your original stake? If it was anything less than 50 I’d just wing it and hope for the best! Or do what the other guy said and cover opposition teams to get you’re stake back. Good luck whatever you do.

  10. Saheel 9 years ago

    Cheers Tam good thinking. Il take a chance on French St Etienne to win this as surely Spurs will win. The price does not reflect the stats of this match.

  11. sonnyboy 9 years ago

    I love watching that young Feyenoord side, but not sure whether to put notes on them as very experienced Sevilla could well lock that game down. Might go DC small stake.

  12. imran 9 years ago

    Mr F where do you get all team news etc

    • Mr Fixit 9 years ago

      Imran, team news isn’t easy to find – it involves searching a lot of sites, looking at clubs sites, etc. Wish it was all in one place.

  13. dannymac 9 years ago

    my treble is KRASNODAR, AC SPARTA PRAHA, AND WOLFSBURG. pays 9/1. good luck .

  14. cockerspaniel 9 years ago

    Salzburg have a player suspended, and also have a few missing through injury. I think Celtic will edge it in a low scoring game.

  15. Alan Stewart 9 years ago

    Napoli
    Sevilla
    Wolfsburg

    8/1 skybet

    Also fancy Villarreal which would make a 4-fold at 17.5/1 or 35/2 if such a thing!!!

    The Villarreal game is a later kick off so you could do the treble then a Villarreal single or do a 4 fold and cover the bet if the other three games come in.

  16. Scott Allot 9 years ago

    Folks, Mr F is having problems with his computer today but will have his tips up as soon as he can. His Super Single is set to be the same as his Daily Record column, Soriano to score.

    • Jack 9 years ago

      Cheers Scott, I’m happy to wait :)

  17. Froody 9 years ago

    any idea why the Lokeran and PAOK prices just shot up? waitin on them for 1500 and the cashout just went from 3 ton to 2 nifty. Think I’ll need to cover or something.

  18. Froody 9 years ago

    Oft 230 cashout now. The bookies messed up with that Cartagines game last night, they were above saprissa in the league, went 1 up and were still just under 6/4. Took advantage.

    • Attila 9 years ago

      Froody, Saprissa are a better team and unbeatable at home before yesterday. They were actually ahead of cartagines before the game, but not now. I think because Saprissa beat Herediano the other day it convinced the bookies (& me!) that they’d beat Cartagines easily. Good spot getting on that 6/4 in game when they were 1 up tho!

    • Froody 9 years ago

      to be fair they were all over them, about 15 corners to 2.

    • Froody 9 years ago

      saprissa that is

  19. Stephen g 9 years ago

    Guys 15 quid for the betting pot tonight , any suggestions for a decent return. I generally do well in europa league betting but now some of te teams are qualified etc so favourites then become dodgy . Who’s doing what ? Any help would be appreciated ! Thanks

  20. Rosco 9 years ago

    Afternoon lads.

    Looking at tonight’s games and Fiorentina, Besiktas & PSV treble returns just under 10/1? Anybody know much about Guingamp, Asteras or Estoril that would be off putting for this? Rather tempting I’d say!

  21. Saheel 9 years ago

    @Attilla
    Small stake £5 turned into £70. I’m in man. £350 at end of this. Etienne will win this! Come on us french tossersssssss

  22. liam foreman 9 years ago

    score and win villareal, spurs and besiktas for me.

  23. Froody 9 years ago

    How can Lokeren go from just over evs to almost 2/1. am I missing something. Anyway i still think they’ll beat them, they have to. I’ll cover the draw.

  24. bush 9 years ago

    lets hope it all goes well fix

  25. Richie 9 years ago

    My tip for today is well thought out and researched on previous Europa ties
    Have the day off :)

  26. StTipp 9 years ago

    HJK vs Copenhagen (Draw)
    Everton and Draw (Double Chance)
    Young Boys/Young Boys (HT/FT)

  27. Ben 9 years ago

    Spurs
    Zurich
    Kiev
    Wolfsburg/Everton BTTS
    Dinamo Minsk/PAOK
    Rijeka/Standard BTTS

    10/1 @SkyBet

    Researched on Soccerway only so caution advised.

  28. Ben 9 years ago

    First three wins are huge favourites. Wolsburg in great form against weak fielded Everton. Still think the likes of Osman, Et’o, Lukaku and McGeady can net. PAOK won reverse fixture 6-1 so I reckon Minsk can bag one in the Belarus. Rijeka capable after beating Duth Fenayord 3-1 at home as they are tonight.

    • StTipp 9 years ago

  36. bluemal 9 years ago

    Celtic game under 4.5 goals 5/6 bet365 it got to settle down soon as its end to end

  37. StTipp 9 years ago

    I cannot believe PSV throwing the lead away twice and finally going down a goal

    The game has now been interupted by water logged pitch and i hope they abandon the thing

    I haven’t dealt with an abandoned game for a long time what’s the procedure these days? Is it still treat as a non runner?

    • Mr Fixit 9 years ago

      StTipp, it will be void unless it’s played tomorrow but that’s unlikely.

    • sonnyboy 9 years ago

      Second half of Estoril v PSV will be played tomorrow at 4pm our time.

  38. StTipp 9 years ago

    Thanks fixit desn’t look to be a good night for me tho bloody copenhagen drew90th minute to fill my listed treble but hjk hit 94th for 2-1 puke

  39. sonnyboy 9 years ago
