Match result: Feyenoord
We kick off our predictions by backing Feyenoord to beat Elfsborg. They tore them to pieces in the first leg running out 5-0 winners but that is only part of the reason we expect them to win in Sweden. Feyenoord are on an eight game winning run with six wins on the spin; Elfsborg meanwhile had been in great form before being demolished in the Netherlands. They had been unbeaten in 10 but failed to get back to winning ways after that first leg defeat as they blew a two goal lead in injury time to Hammarby. Can they bounce back from two big disappointments to beat a team that are clearly superior?
Total goals: Over 2.5
Next up in our list of tips is for the match to see a minimum of three goals. Elfsborg have seen four of their past five games go over the 2.5 mark with an average of 3.8 goals per match. Feyenoord have a similar record in their past five matches too with, again, just one of the five coming up short of the 2,5 cut off. The game average for Feyenoord is 3.4 in that time.
Anytime scorer: Luis Fernando Sinisterra
For the last of our predictions we turn our attention to the star of the first leg, Luis Fernando Sinisterra. Sinisterra bagged a hat-trick in the last meeting and with five goals in his last four altogether he's very much a man in-form. The Elfsborg defence will be fearing his impact ahead of the match and after giving up 19 shots on goal last time, you do wonder exactly what they're going to do to keep the 22-year-old hot shot out.
Elfsborg vs Feyenoord: Meet the sides
Elfsborg
Elfsborg had been flying with 10 games unbeaten but they came crashing down to Earth when they visited the Netherlands last week. That result clearly played on their minds against Hammarby too because a usually stable backline gave up two goals in injury time to throw away victory in the Allsvenskan. They'll need to be much better on Thursday and Tim Ronning can expect to be a busy man.
Feyenoord
Feyenoord might have won the first leg 5-0 but they won't come off the gas in the second leg. It's just not in their nature at the moment. They've won six games on the bounce scoring a total of 20 goals and keep clean sheets in the last four. With our goal scorer tip, Luis Fernando Sinisterra, expected to play again, they'll be confident of another win.
