On thursday night, Turkish teams look very comfortable in the return games after they have got clear victories in the first legs. While Galatasaray will be welcoming Maccabi Netanya from Israel at Ali Sami Yen Stadium in the front of their great supporters, Fenerbahce will make a trip to Hungary in order to face Honved. There will be no spectator in the match. Bookmaker have lots of betting selections as usual; but I advice you not to bet on winning market because of the results of the first legs and the beginning of the leagues which is going to start at the weekend.

UEFA Europe League

GALATASARAY-MACCABI NETANYA

Stadium : Ali Sami Yen
Time : 20:00
Refree : Michael Leslie Dean (ENG)
The first match : MAC 1-4 GS

After Galatasaray conceded the first goal of the match in Israel, they woke up and started to show their real power. The great game play of Milan Baros, Arda Turan and Harry Kewell was good enough to destroy Maccabi Netanya. Now, it is time to show at home. Maccabi Netanya can never cope with themselves. The odds of the home team victory are too low normally, so we should try to bet other selections in order to catch nice odds. I think the away team may manage to stop Galatasaray in the first half; but they can not keep on doing it in the second half.

Tip : More goals at second half.
Bookmaker : Bet365
Odds : 2,00



HONVED - FENERBAHCE

Stadium : Jozsef Bozsik
Time : 20:00
Refree: Paul Allaerts (BEL)
The first match : FB 5 - 1 HON

Fenerbahce has really humiliated Honved in the first match. On thursday, they can rest some of the regulars; because they do not want to lose any other players like Roberto Carlos before the season begins. Honved was not too bad until they concede the first one and tried to create a few dangers with counter attacks. Fenerbahce will meet Gaziantepspor on sunday night, so I do not think they will give their all for this match. Under these circumstances, we can try something different. HONVED to score first is a good selection with great odds.

Tip : HONVED scores the first goal
Bookmaker : Bet365
Odds : 2,80
