Expect a scoring ending in the Europa League semi-final qualifications : Accumulator Tips for August 07, 2025

Fredrikstad will play against Midtjylland in the 1st leg matchup in the Europa League semi-final qualification at Fredrikstad Stadion. Fredrikstad will aim to secure a win on their home soil and build on their unbeaten streak of three games, while Midtjylland will aim to prevent a defeat on the road and extend their unbeaten streak of seven games. Meanwhile, Panathinaikos and Shakhtar Donetsk will also play against one another in their 1st-leg matchup in the Europa League semi-final qualification at Olympic Stadium of Athens. Panathinaikos will aim to secure a win on their home soil and snap their winless streak of two games, while Shakhtar Donetsk will aim to secure a win on the road and extend their winning streak to four games. Servette will welcome Utrecht at Stade de Geneva Stadium in the 1st leg matchup in the Europa League semi-final qualification. Servette will aim to secure a win and snap their winless streak of three games, while Utrecht will aim to secure a win on the road and extend their winning streak to three games.

Fredrikstad vs Midtjylland

Fredrikstad recorded one loss, two ties and two wins during their last five games. They suffered a defeat against Bodo/Glimt, while they tied against Hamkam and Tromso. However, they were victorious against Stromsgodset and Molde. Meanwhile, Midtjylland recorded three ties and two wins during their last five games. Therefore, both teams will aim to secure a win following their previous tied matchups against their opponents in their 1st leg encounter, as a result, I expect more than two goals to be recorded.

🔖 Fredrikstad predicted lineup (3-5-2):

Valdemar Birksoe (GK), Simen Rafn, Ulrik Fredriksen, Maxwell Woledzi, Daniel Eid, Rocco Shein, Leonard Owusu, Sondre Soerloekk, Stian Stray Molde, Oskar Oehlenschlaeger, Henrik Langaas Skogvold.

🔖 FC Midtjylland predicted lineup (4-4-1-1):

Jonas Loessl (GK), Adam Gabriel, Han-Beom Lee, Mads Bech, Paulinho, Dario Osorio, Pedro Bravo, Oliver Soerensen, Aral Simsir, Valdemar Byskov, Franculino.

• Bet on: Over 2.5 goals 1.71

Panathinaikos vs Shakhtar Donetsk

Panathinaikos recorded two losses, two ties and one win during their last five games, while Shakhtar Donetsk had one loss, one tie and three wins. Panathinaikos will aim to secure a win on their home soil in their 1st leg matchup to snap their winless streak of two games lately, while Shakhtar Donetsk will aim to secure a win on the road and extend their winning ways to four games. Therefore, I expect two or more goals to be recorded in their match since both teams will aim to extend their previous scoring abilities.

🔖 Panathinaikos possible starting lineup (4-3-3):

Dragowski (GK); Vagiannidis, Touba, Palmer-Brown, Kyriakopoulos; Maksimovic, Chirivella; Pellistri, Bakasetas, Djuricic; Ioannidis

🔖 Shakhtar Donetsk possible starting lineup (4-3-3):

Riznyk (GK); Tobias, Matviyenko, Bondar, Henrique; Gomes, Sudakov, Pedrinho; Alisson, Elias, Kevin

• Bet on: Over 2.5 goals 1.87

Servette vs Utrecht

Servette will come into this match looking to avoid a fourth successive defeat. Since a 1:0 first-leg victory against Viktoria Plzen in their UCL qualifier two weeks ago, Thomas Häberli´s men have lost each of their last three matches, conceding ten goals in the process. Following a 3:1 home reversal against Plzen that ended their Champions League hopes, the Swiss side then fell to a painful 4:1 home reversal against St Gallen last weekend. High-scoring outcomes have been frequent for the home side. Servette have seen over 2.5 goals scored in five of their last six matches, while both teams also got on the scoresheet in each of those five fixtures. Meanwhile, FC Utrecht makes the trip to Switzerland in high spirits after a commanding 7:2 aggregate victory against Sheriff secured their place in Thursday's 3rd round qualifier. After an impressive 3:1 first-leg win in Moldova, Ron Jans's side made light-work of the second-leg, claiming a comfortable 4:1 win in the Netherlands last week. Therefore, I expect multiple goals to be recorded in this match, since the home team were weak in defense, and the visiting team are expected to build on their strong attacking play.

🔖 Servette possible starting lineup (4-2-3-1):

Frick (GK); Baron, Severin, Bronn, Srdanovic; Cognat, Fomba; Njoh, Morandi, Stevanovic; Guillemenot

🔖 FC Utrecht possible starting lineup (4-3-3):

Barkas (GK); Horemans, Viergever, Van der Hoorn, El Karouani; Zechiel, Engwanda, Jensen; Jonathans, Min, Cathline

• Bet on: Over 2.5 goals 1.66
