Crystal Palace vs Hoffenheim Tips
Here are our betting tips for Thursday's Europa League clash, along with the best free bets to use on them.
Tip 1: Yeremy Pino to score a goal
Pino has scored in all three of his Europa League starts this season, netting three times from six shots despite managing just one goal in nine Premier League appearances.
Expected to play in the No.10 role behind Mateta, he can benefit from Palace’s attacking approach at Selhurst Park, making him a solid bet to get on the scoresheet, one of the picks we look at for our anytime goalscorer tips.
Tip 2: Jean-Philippe Mateta to commit 2 or more fouls
Mateta averages around 2.2 fouls per 90 minutes this season, the third-highest rate in the Palace squad, and has committed four fouls across his four Premier League appearances.
Expected to lead the line again, he should be involved in plenty of physical battles with Hoffenheim’s centre-backs, making 2/1 for two or more fouls appealing if he starts and plays most of the game.
Tip 3: Ozan Kabak to commit 3 or more fouls
Kabak leads Hoffenheim for fouls per 90 in the Bundesliga at 2.4, and in the Europa League he has committed 12 fouls in three games, an average of four a match.
Palace will attack down the flanks and through Pino and McNeil, which means Kabak is likely to be involved in a lot of duels.
