The Germans finished inside the automatic spots following the Group Phase, while the Spanish side had to play a play-off game in addition to the Round of 16 stage that both were involved in.

Quick Picks

Our pick: Draw

Value bet: 'Yes' in the BTTS

Long shot: 1-1 as the correct score

Betting Preview

SC Freiburg have had a solid European soccer betting campaign so far.

They finished seventh in the Group Phase, winning five of their eight games (2D, 1L).

They scored 10 goals in that stage, conceding just four.

They would play Belgian side Genk in the Round of 16, and after losing the first leg in Belgium 1-0, they returned to Germany and dispatched them emphatically 5-1.

Five different players managed to get on the score sheet in that game, highlighting the potential danger Celta will need to be aware of.

The Spaniards needed the play-off route to get to where they are now.

They finished 16th in the League Phase, winning four of their eight games (1D, 3L), scoring 15 goals and conceding 11.

In the play-off, they overcame POAK 3-1 on aggregate, having won 2-1 on the road in the first leg.

The Round of 16 would see Claudio Giráldez's side take on Olympique Lyonnais, where they would go through 3-1 on aggregate following another road win (2-0, second leg).

Betting Markets to Watch

This game is one that can be considered "too close to call", which is why we think there's value worth exploring in the draw.

Freiburg have been excellent at home, having won each of their last six home UEFA Europa League games.

Celta, though, have been unbeaten in their last three trips.

They've shown signs of being weak, but not when playing in the knockout stages.

We think the BTTS hitting also offers value, as both have managed to find the back of the net with consistency.

Although it has failed to hit in five of Freiburg's six Europa League games, Celta have scored in each of their 12 games in this year's competition.

For those looking to understand how to bet on the Europa League, this match offers a compelling case study.

Still, we think it will be close and would go with the 'Under 2.5 goals' market.

With the 'Under 1.5 Goals' market hitting in five of SC Freiburg's last six Europa League matches, and of the opinion that the BTTS will hit, we think this game could end 1-1.

We think the most likely outcome is a draw, based on how well both teams have been performing in the UEL this season, especially as home and away teams.

Both Freiburg's Bundesliga betting form and Celta's La Liga betting performances suggest neither side will dominate.

Our long shot is that the game ends 1-1, as we believe this is where the value lies for this upcoming match.
