LiontipsMaccabi Tel Aviv vs Panevezys. Europa League match prediction and bets
Command Analysis
Current form
Maccabi entered the new season under the leadership of Zarko Lazetic . The specialist's debut in the Champions League was unsuccessful - in an equal two-match confrontation, the "yellow-blues" lost to the Romanian FCSB with a score of 1:2 on aggregate. In the LE qualification, they managed to start with an away victory over Panevezys (2:1), and by the 10th minute, the Israeli footballers scored two goals against the opponent in that match and created a large number of dangerous moments; clearly, based on the game, the score should have been higher. Since the beginning of the season, Maccabi, in its usual style, has distinguished itself with a reliable defense - not once in four official matches of the season has the team conceded more than one goal.
Disqualifications and injuries
Maccabi has no problems with the squad for the upcoming game, all the main players are ready to take to the field.
Interesting trends for betting
- Maccabi has not had more than nine corners in its last six home games
- Only one of Maccabi's previous five matches saw more than one goal scored in the first half
Maccabi's probable lineup
Mishpati - Nahmias, Asante, Shlomo, Davidzada - Peretz, Van Overeem, Kaniszovsky - Cohen, Zahavi, Addo
Current form
In the first qualifying round of the Champions League , Panevezys caused a sensation by knocking out the strong Finnish HJK from the tournament. However, this success is the only bright spot for the club in a frankly disastrous season. In the Lithuanian championship, the team occupies only the penultimate place, ahead of Suduva only on additional indicators. In the previous European Cup battle in the Champions League, they were unable to counter Jagiellonia - a defeat with an aggregate score of 1:7. In the first game with Maccabi, they managed to avoid a major defeat (1:2), but the opponent could have won with a much larger score.
Disqualifications and injuries
This year, Panevezys is playing without injured attack leader Ariagners Smit , who scored 14 goals in the national championship last season. Švedkauskas is also injured.
Interesting trends for betting
- In the last three European Cup matches, Panevezys lost at the end of the first half
- The bet on total over 2.5 goals played in the three previous matches of the Lithuanians in European Cups
Panevezys' estimated lineup
Timbur - Rasimavichus, Dubra, Klimavichus, Mazan - Veliulis, Gorobtsov, De Vega, Dieng - Gussias, Mbo

9.50Tip and bets
After the sensational victory over HJK Panevezys has not won a single match in European competitions. The team has been in a game crisis throughout the season, there are losses in the squad. We do not think that in Hungary on a neutral field the Lithuanians will have a chance for a positive outcome in the confrontation with a well-organized Maccabi , which has a noticeable advantage in class.
Our prediction is a Maccabi win with an Asian handicap (-1.5) at odds of 1.57
Bet on total
Maccabi is distinguished by its reliable defense and overall clear organization of the game on all lines. We do not expect Panevezys to be able to open the defense of such an opponent even once today.
Second bet - Panevezys will not score with odds of 1.62
Bet on the first half
In the three previous European Cup matches, Panevezys lost already at the end of the first half. We believe that today the losing streak will not be interrupted.
Prediction: Maccabi wins in the first half with odds of 1.81
