UEFA Europa Conference League-Hibernian VS Aston Villa

 

 

Team Analysis

Aston Villa are returning to European football for the first time in over a decade. They will kick off their 2023/24 UEFA Conference League adventure with a trip to Easter Road Stadium and a game against Scottish Premiership side Hibernian.

This will be a great opportunity for Hibs fans as you don't get the chance to watch the top Premier League teams in Edinburgh who often feature in competitive matches.

Of course, the English team are huge favorites both on the day and in the two fixtures and have every reason to expect them to live up to that label on the pitch.

 

odds analysis

Hib just can't seem to keep their cool at the back lately. They conceded five goals in their opening two defeats to St. Louis. Mirren and Motherwell at the start of a new season in the Scottish top flight.

Moreover, Lee Johnson's squad have failed to keep a single clean sheet in their four European games this summer.

 

 

Conclusion

The difference in quality between the two teams is huge and reckon Villa will pick up an easy win over the line at 1.70 odds.

AFC Champions League-Urawa Red Diamonds VS LeeMan

 

Analysis

Urawa Red Diamonds are kicking off their international cup season. They had a bye to the playoffs and did not play the preliminary round. The Japanese giants are seeking a fourth title in the competition, having won their third accolade in the AFC Champions League last season.

Urawa beat Nagoya 1-0 in the J1 League on Friday to end a four-game winless run across competitions. They will look to maintain that momentum as they meet Lee Man for the first time. The hosts will also take confidence from their recent record of 11 home games without a defeat.

 

Lee Man, meanwhile, began their campaign in the preliminary round, crushing Indonesian side Bali United 5-1 to progress to this stage. The visitors are playing their third season in the AFC Champions League. Last year, they made it past the playoffs to reach the group stage – their best continental record so far.

They finished second in the Hong Kong Premier League last season. They lost 2-0 to Southern FC in the Sapling Cup in May. It was the only game they played in the offseason ahead of their continental campaign. Lee Man have lost once in five away games

 

Putting all things into consideration I recommend picking LeeMan +2.5

Prediction 2-1

 

 

Home 0.98 AH 2.5 Away 0.86

Over 0.82 O/U 3/3.5 Under 1.00

 

Conclusion

LeeMan +2.5

Spanish La Liga-Granada CF VS Rayo Vallecano

 

 

Team Analysis

With a fantastic end to the season in Spain's LaLiga 2, Granada made a quick return to the elite competition in the country. The opening itself was not positive in terms of results. Granada lost away against Atletico Madrid and in the next round there is a chance to pick up the first point. In the preparatory period, the club won all the matches except the last one which they lost against Almeria.

 

Rayo Vallecano finished the previous season in 11th place and the ambitions on this one are very similar. They will try to finish at the top of the table and ensure survival is as comfortable as possible. Rayo made a strong start to this year's competition as they easily won on the road against Almeria.

 

odds analysis

Granada haven't had much success against Rayo in the last 5-10 years, they haven't managed to win against a side from the outskirts of Madrid in the last 9 matches. Granted Granada is a very good home team, but Rayo showed in the last matches that they can be good guests.

 

Conclusion

pick Vallecano & under 2.5, good luck.

Kashima had to end 4 matches without losing after a 0-1 defeat to Nagoya and stuck in 4th place in the J1 League standings, while Tosu is in 11th place in the J1 League standings after failing to win in the last 3 matches.

 

 

Odds Analysis

 

Kashima is favored with a Handicap of -0.75 and OU at 2.5 convinces this afternoon's match Kashima will win because it is dominant in the last few meetings.

 

Conclusion

 

The meeting record of the two teams may be dominated by Kashima but the last 3 meetings of the two always end in a draw making Kashima have to work hard to win at Kashima Soccer Stadium.

 

Kashima Antlers -0.75

 

Kashima Antlers 2-0 Sagan Tosu

Odds Analysis

 

Urawa is favored with a Handicap of -0.25 and OU at 2 convinces this afternoon's match will be exciting seeing the position of the two teams that are in the top flight.

 

Conclusion

 

An almost evenly matched record of meeting and beating each other convinces this afternoon's match between the two teams will be a draw and with 5 of the last 6 meetings between the two teams always creating 2 goals convinces the match will end with both teams scoring goals.

HJK is in 2nd place, only one point away from KuPS which is in first place. In Europe, they have not had much success, but in the last two years, have seen significant improvement as they have made it to the group stages of the Europa Conference League and Europa League.

Conclusion

Over 2.5.
