UEFA Europa League Knockout Round Playoffs Odds to Advance to Round of 16 | Game 1

Ajax Amsterdam -106 vs. FC Union Berlin +295

Both teams are playing lights out. Ajax has won 4 straight. Union Berlin has won 5 straight.

In their last, the Bundesliga squad, that’s Union Berlin, beat rival Leipzig 2-1. Ajax blasted a Dutch Eredivisie rival in their last. Union plays in the much tougher league, which is why Berlin gets the nod.

Europa League Pick: Union Berlin

Barcelona -130 vs. Manchester United +330

Although Barca versus Man U is a Europa League match, it feels like a Champions League throw down. Both teams are flying high. Barcelona is on a 5-match winning streak. United has won 4-of-5 with a draw. The Red Devils drew versus Leeds United a couple of matches ago.

Barca beat Villareal in their last. No doubt, Barcelona has the edge. But ten Hag figures to have a strategy that makes it difficult for Barcelona to score. Backing the draw makes sense.

Europa League Pick: Draw

FC Salzburg +179 vs. AS Roma +159

Road team AS Roma shows 2 wins, a loss, and a draw in their last 5. The reason Roma is garnering saw much attention is because they play in Serie A.

But Salzburg is in much better form. The home dog in this has won 4-of-5. Ah, but save for a victory in their last, the other 3 wins came in club friendlies. Roma gets the nod.

Europa League Pick: AS Roma

Bayer Leverkusen -102 vs. AS Monaco +265

Monaco is playing great soccer. The French Ligue 1 team has won 4-of-5 with a draw. Monaco is playing so well that they upset Paris Saint-Germain 3-1 on Feb. 11.

But although the win impresses, it comes with a caveat. Neither Messi nor Mbappe is in good enough condition to step onto the pitch. Leverkusen broke a 2-match losing streak on Feb. 11 with a 3-1 road victory over TSG Hoffenheim. Bayer offers decent enough odds to warrant backing.

Europa League Pick: Bayer Leverkusen

Juventus -1.5 +110 vs. Nantes +1.5 -140

Nantes and Juve show the exact same form. Both teams are on 3-game winning streaks. Ligue 1 squad Nantes beat AC Ajaccio, Angers, and Lorient.

Serie A team Juve dusted Lazio, Salernitana, and Fiorentina. Both squads are playing well enough to warrant a long look. But Juve is playing well enough to where taking a chance by laying the 1.5 goals makes sense.

Europa League Pick: Juventus -1.5

Sevilla +125 vs. PSV Eindhoven +222

Sevilla shows 3 wins and 2 losses in their last 5. The home team in this match beat Mallorca on Feb. 11. But in the previous contest, Barcelona demolished Sevilla 3-0.

Eindhoven has won 3 with a draw in their last 4. PSV is playing well. Not only that, but the draw came agianst Feyenoord Rotterdam, a top rival, and it happened in a road match. The odds make the road squad more than playable.

Europa League Pick: PSV Eindhoven
