UEFA Europa League picks for Lazio vs. Galatasaray

Before you tune in to Thursday’s match, you need to see the Galatasaray vs. Lazio picks from soccer insider Jon Eimer. He is a high-volume bettor who has vast knowledge about leagues and players most people don’t know exist, including most oddsmakers. He understands that oddsmakers don’t focus on obscure leagues, so he has become obsessed with learning everything possible about smaller leagues. The Indiana-based handicapper compiled a winning record of 260-133-1 with over 90 units of profit for his community on various platforms over a recent two-month stretch. Anyone who has followed him is way up.

For Lazio vs. Galatasaray Eimer is betting both teams will score for a -165 payout. Lazio’s results have been phrenetic, but the club has scored seven goals over its last two games. Lazio has also conceded nine goals in its last three matches, so play hasn’t been as buttoned-up as manager Maurizio Sarri would like. Meanwhile, Galatasaray has found the back of the net in 10 of its last 11 outings. 

Ciro Immobile has been Lazio’s top scoring threat this year with 16 goals in 19 appearances. He’s scored seven goals since the beginning of November and is coming off of a two-goal performance against Sampdoria in Italian Serie A. Galatasaray doesn’t have a singular scoring threat as dangerous as Immobile, and Sofiane Feghouli has been the only repeat goal-scorer for the club over its last six matches.

“This is a must win game for Lazio, and I believe we will see that on the pitch come Thursday,” Eimer told SportsLine. “I do believe Galatasaray can find the back of the net still, I don’t believe we will see Lazio losing on what should be a very high scoring affair.”
