Europa League Treble: Backing wins for Inter, Twente and Hannover
After being just one goal away on Wednesday's action, Al Hain-Cole has picked out the three best value bets from the Europa League for a treble worth just under 5/1
|
Europa League Treble
|
| Neftchi Baku |
VS
|
Inter |
| Kick-off: 18:00GMT |
|
| Tip: Inter to win at 7/10 (1.70) with Bet365 |
Although Neftchi Baku boast an impressive unbeaten home record that stretches back 14 games, visitors Inter are unlikely to be overawed in the face of such a statistic.
The Nerazzurri ended Vaslui's nine game unbeaten streak on their last away trip in the Europa League, and have now won all five matches on the road this season, scoring 12 goals without reply.Andrea Stramaccioni's men will be in confident spirits after overcoming Fiorentina at the weekend, whilst Neftchi suffered their second defeat in four matches in the Azerbaijani league - a competition that they usually dominate with ease.
Tonight's match represents by far the biggest test in the hosts' short European history, and they should find the step up in class too much to handle against such behemoths of the continental game.
With Inter in good form, expect them to shatter yet another proud home record this evening, at odds of 7/10 (1.70) with Bet365.
| Hannover |
VS
|
Levante |
| Kick off: 18:00 GMT |
|
| Tip: Hannover 96 to win at 4/6 (1.67) with Bet365 |
Last season was Hannover’s first Europa League campaign, and they exceeded all expectations by going all the way to the last eight.
The key to this success was their formidable home record, as Die Roten lost just once at the AWD Arena - in their quarter-final exit to eventual champions Atletico Madrid.In fact, that defeat was their only loss on home soil within 90 minutes for the whole of last season, and they have continued their invincible record so far this campaign.
This does not bode well for a Levante side that have lost 16 of their last 26 away from home, including their last three consecutive league games by an aggregate scoreline of nine goals to one.
All signs point to a comfortable home win in this one, and you can back that coming to pass at inviting 4/6 (1.67) odds.
| Helsingborgs |
VS
|
Twente |
| Kick-off: 18:00 GMT |
|
| Twente to win at 21/20 (2.05) with Bet365 |
Twente are riding high at the top of the Dutch league, having won their first six consecutive games before coming unstuck away to Ajax last weekend.
Steve McClaren’s side made light work of the group stages in last season’s Europa League, finishing top and advancing to the knockout stages for the fourth consecutive year.Helsingborgs, on the other hand, have not made it past the qualifying stages of this competition in five seasons, and have lost five of their last six matches in Europe.
The Swedish champions are struggling to qualify for European competition this year, as a disappointing domestic campaign sees them dwindling in sixth place with five games to go.
All in all, the Dutch side look like great value at 21/20 (2.05) to continue their strong form and emerge victorious this evening.

| Backing all three selections pays 24/5 (5.80) with Bet365 |
