View our expert's Goals Accumulator Tips for Sunday, which includes Both Teams to Score, Team to Score 2+ Goals and Over 2.5 Goals selections.
Our Goals Acca Tips are based on statistical analysis of recent performances.
Jagiellonia Bialystok vs Rangers – Both Teams to Score (Thursday, 17:00)
Rangers begin their bid to qualify for the league phase of the Europa League as they travel to Poland to take on Jagiellonia Bialystok in the first leg of their third-round qualifying tie.
Derek McInnes began his reign as Rangers boss with a disappointing 1-1 draw away at Dundee United in the Scottish Premiership last Sunday.
That now means Both Teams to Score has paid out in each of their Teddy Bears’ previous nine matches in all competitions.
There’s every chance that trend continues in Poland on Thursday night as they take on a Jagiellonia Bialystok side that saw 8/14 (57%) of their Conference League fixtures last season produce goals at both ends.
HJK vs Motherwell – Over 2.5 Goals (Thursday, 17:00)
Entertainment looks on the cards in Helsinki on Thursday night as record Finnish champions HJK host Motherwell in the first leg of their Conference League third-round tie.
Motherwell brushed aside Faroese side HB Torshavn in the previous round, as they won 5-0 on aggregate (2-0 & 0-3).
Alfred Johansson’s visitors followed up that 0-3 victory in Torshavn three days later by going to Easter Road and claiming an impressive 1-2 victory in their Premiership opener.
The Steelmen’s matches are generally open and see plenty of goalmouth action, and that looks set to continue in Helsinki on Thursday night.
Goals have been a feature of HJK’s matches this campaign, with Over 2.5 Goals paying out in 14 of their last 17 fixtures in all competitions – including in both legs of their victory over Coleraine in the previous round (5-0 & 0-3).
Benfica to Score 2+ (Thursday, 20:00)
Hearts face a daunting trip to the Portuguese capital on Thursday night as they take on Benfica in the first leg of their Europa League third-round qualifying tie.
The Jambos appointed Wouter Vrancken as McIness’s successor, but it’s been a difficult start for the Belgian, as he saw his side beaten 6-0 on aggregate by Sturm Graz in the second round of Champions League qualifying.
The mood of the Hearts faithful would worsen at Pittodrie three days later, as they conceded twice in stoppage time to lose 2-1 to Aberdeen – meaning they have shipped multiple goals in all three of their contests in all competitions this season.
That trend looks likely to continue in Lisbon on Thursday night as they take on a Benfica side that fired five goals past St Gallen in the previous round last Thursday.
Hibernian vs KF Shkendija – Over 2.5 Goals (Thursday, 20:00)
Hibs will look to continue their quest for league-phase football in the Conference League on Thursday evening as they welcome North Macedonian side KF Shkendija to Easter Road in the first leg of their third-round qualifying tie.
David Gray’s men recovered from their embarrassing 2-0 defeat in Kosovo against Malisheva in the previous round as they won the second leg at home seven days later 4-1.
The Hibees’ previous five European contests have now produced 21 goals, with Over 2.5 Goals landing in four (80%) of them – including in each of the last three at Easter Road.
That trend looks likely to continue in the Scottish capital on Thursday given that 4/5 (80%) of Shkendija’s matches in all competitions this season have gone Over 2.5 Goals.
