Net-busting night in Wednesday's UEFA Champions League qualifiers: Accumulator Tips for August 06, 2025

The UEFA Champions League qualifying is now in its third qualifying round, and teams from across Europe are scrambling for a spot in the play-off rounds that will guarantee them safe passage to the league phase. We have picked the best three games happening this Wednesday to curate an accumulator tip and help you win big. Be sure not to miss out and check out the games below. 

Salzburg vs. Club Brugge

Salzburg is already one game down in the 2025-26 Austrian Bundesliga. It was not a great start, but defeat was avoided as they played to a 2-2 away draw against newly-promoted SV Ried over the weekend.

Die Roten Bullen now turn their attention to the UEFA Champions League qualifiers. They have made it to the third qualifying round after brushing aside Brann 5-2 on aggregate in the second qualifying round.

Their opponents are none other than 2023-24 Belgian Pro League champions Club Brugge, who played second fiddle in the championship round last season.

So far, it has been a shaky start to the current Belgian Pro League campaign (W1, L1). Their last league game ended in a 2-1 away defeat at the hands of Mechelen. The first leg of the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round presents an opportunity to restore their confidence.

Salzburg and Club Brugge are meeting each other for the third time in a European competition. Last seen crossing paths in 2019 in round 32 of the Europa League, Club Brugge won 2-1 in the first leg, and Salzburg won 4-0 in the second leg. As we can see from the two scorelines, I'm expecting a high-scoring affair with over 2.5 goals being my main prediction.

Salzburg vs. Club Brugge trends.

Four of Salzburg's last five competitive matches across all competitions ended with over 2.5 goals.

Club Brugge's last three competitive matches across all competitions this season ended with over 2.5 goals.

Eight of Salzburg's last ten matches in the UEFA Champions League have ended with over 2.5 goals.

Club Brugge's last five matches in the UEFA Champions League have ended with over 2.5 goals.

Feyenoord vs. Fenerbahce

Feyenoord are entering their first competitive match of the season after losing 2-0 away from home against Heerenveen in the final game of the 2024-25 Eredivisie on May 18. In preparation for the current season, they have overseen six preseason games.

Their performance, however, was unimpressive, notching just two wins and three losses (D1). Attention now turns to the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round. They find themselves in this position because of their third-place finish in the previous Eredivisie season.

Fenerbahce, on the other hand, had to play second fiddle in the 2024-25 Turkish Super Lig season for the fourth straight time. This was enough to grant them participation in this year's UEFA Champions League qualifiers.

The Yellow Canaries are also a bit rusty when it comes to competitive matches, with their last such being a 2-1 home league win against Konyaspor on May 31. Since then, they have been involved with preseason games, securing four wins from their last five.

Feyenoord have not been performing that well in the UEFA Champions League. They have failed to win their last three matches, but come into this match as favourites. That's mainly because of their home form, which has seen them win three of their last four games. During this period, they scored three or more goals in two outings. Fenerbahce have lost just one of their last four matches in this competition, and three of those outings produced over 2.5 goals. I'm expecting a similar outcome when they clash this Wednesday.

Feyenoord vs. Fenerbahce trends.

Nine of Feyenoord's last 11 games in the UEFA Champions League ended with over 2.5 goals.

Fenerbahce's last two away matches in the UEFA Champions League ended with over 2.5 goals.

Feyenoord have seen three or more goals being scored in four of their last six home games in the UEFA Champions League.

Feyenoord and Fenerbahce's last meeting in the UEFA Champions League ended in a 3-3 draw.

Nice vs. Benfica

Nice has decided to grace the UEFA Champions League with its presence after an eight-year absence. In the 2017-18 edition, they were eliminated in the third qualifying round. They are out to make sure that history doesn't repeat itself this season.

The Eaglets finished fourth in the previous Ligue 1 season and needed just one point to secure a top-three finish and a chance to enter the UEFA Champions League proper without the preliminary rounds.

For the second time running, Benfica finished as runners-up in the 2024-25 Primeira Liga season. This was enough to grant them participation in this year's UEFA Champions League qualifiers.

The Eagles were recently involved in the FIFA Club World Cup that was held in the United States. However, their journey ended the moment they lost 4-1 in extra time against Chelsea in the round of 16 on June 28. They may have failed to bring the prestigious trophy home, but winning the Super Cup final against Sporting CP after four weeks was a good feeling.

Nice is rusty heading into their first competitive match. That could be a deal breaker in their emerging victorious here. Benfica are already in a good mood after clinching the Super Cup against defending Primeira Liga champions, Sporting CP. Benfica has also won its last two matches against Nice. However, for this particular match, I'm expecting a high-scoring affair with over 2.5 goals being the main prediction.

Nice vs. Benfica trends.

Five of Nice's last six friendly games have produced over 2.5 goals.

Four of Benfica's last seven away matches in the UEFA Champions League have ended with over 2.5 goals.

Two of Benfica's last three matches in the UEFA Champions League ended with over 2.5 goals.
