Read on to take a look at the Europa League betting odds and for some of our best tips ranging from -110 all the way up to +400.

Antwerp host Frankfurt on home soil in this Group D tie. Antwerp opened up their Europa League campaign with a 2-1 loss to Olympiakos, which wasn’t ideal but they will be confident that they can make progress in this group. Let’s remember it was only eleven months ago that Antwerp beat Tottenham at the Bosuilstadion.
Frankfurt played out a draw on their opening day on home soil to Turkish giants Fenerbahçe. In our opinion, this game could play out as a tie game with some super value being offered to us at +300. Antwerp have been strong at home in Europe in recent years. Frankfurt haven’t put their best foot forward in European Football lately, and they would probably be happy to draw all their away games.
For our best bet, we do think it will be a score draw, 1-1, 2-2.

Lyon are still trying to set things right from their opening three games of the season domestically, which have seen them not win any of their first three games. Since then they have gone on to win four of the next six and on home soil, they are yet to lose this season.
More excitingly for us is the fact that three of those five home games seen btts and over 2.5 goals and all five of those games saw both teams scoring.
Brøndby have seen btts in seven of their eight away games and five of those eight seen the btts and over 2.5 goals hit. We like the Btts and over 2.5 goals at a massive +140 in Lyon tonight.
Both these teams usually see goals and both their opening games seen both teams not scoring, it would likely happen here tonight, maybe a 3-1 Lyon win could be on the cards.

Both teams picked up points on the opening day of the tournament, as Sociedad drew 2-2 against PSV, whist Monaco beat Sturm Graz 1-0 on home soil, a result many will look at as an underperformance as they were expected to win by 3 or 4 goals. The value for us here between these two evenly matched teams is the under 2.5 goals at just -110.
Real Sociedad have an ever-growing injury list and they will be happy to shut the shop here and keep it conservative, especially with how dangerous this Monaco side can be when they want to be.
None of Sociedad’s home games this season have even seen two goals as three of them ended 1-0 and the other two ended 0-0.

The clash of first and bottom after matchday one takes place in this Group G match in Hungary. The results on matchday one reflect much on these teams as a whole, yes Betis are a good team but they were brought to the brink by Celtic 4-3 on home soil.
As for Ferencvaros, they gave it their all only to suffer a respectable 2-1 loss away to German giants Bayern Leverkusen, but the damage they usually hand out in European football has been on home soil and Betis might be underestimating their opponents heading unto this one, well the top-rated sportsbooks are at the very least.
We see too much value at +400 in the home side not to lose but also over 2.5 goals to be scored in the game, this has a 2-1 / 2-2 sort of feel to it and regardless of who wins we think we will see over 2.5 goals but given the value on Ferencvaros we are taking them double chance also in bet combo at a juicy +400.
