Feyenoord vs Roma – Both Teams to Score

Jose Mourinho’s Roma travel to The Netherlands to play Ruud van Nistelrooy’s Feyenoord in the first leg match of their Europa League quarter-finals. The winner of the tie will play either Bayer Leverkusen or Union St.Gilloise.

Feyenoord steamrolled Shakhtar Donetsk in their Round of 16 tie, going through after an 8-2 aggregate win. They haven’t lost at home and have just a single defeat in their league campaign.

As for Roma, they beat Real Sociedad 2-0 on aggregate to make it here, and face a tough match away at De Kuip.

We think both teams will get on the scoresheet, as they are both well equipped with attacking talent in their ranks.

Juventus vs Sporting Lisbon – Juventus win

Juventus host Sporting Lisbon in their quarter-final matchup, with the winner of the tie facing the winner of Manchester United and Sevilla.

Juventus drew against Inter Milan and lost to Lazio last weekend, but hold a good record in the Europa League after dropping down from the Champions League. They are unbeaten at home in all competitions since January, and that might prove helpful against a Sporting Lisbon side who knocked out Premier League leaders Arsenal.

Sporting are unbeaten since their defeat to FC Porto in early February, and would like to keep that running to give them hope of progressing with the second leg to come in front of their home fans.

We do think Juventus win this one, but expect it to be close.

Manchester United vs Sevilla – Manchester United win + over 2.5 goals

Manchester United host Sevilla, looking to secure their second piece of silverware of the season by following up their Carabao Cup success.

The Red Devils have won their last two matches without conceding and eased past another Spanish side in Real Betis in the Round of 16. Sevilla will be the fourth Spanish side United have faced in this competition, after previously facing Real Sociedad, Barcelona as well as the aforementioned Real Betis.

Sevilla have had a disastrous season, with them sitting 13th, and only five points off 18th placed Valencia. They have also lost both of their away games in the Europa League, with their home form proving enough to help them qualify for the quarter-finals.

Despite Marcus Rashford missing out, who has been on top form since returning from the World Cup, we still think Manchester United will have enough in them to beat an out of sorts Sevilla side and give them a healthy advantage going into the second leg in Seville.
