Back this 9/1 Europa League acca

The final round of Europa League 'League Phase' fixtures are upon us as teams clamour to secure a spot in the competition's next round.

Odds Now's Brad Walker (@brad_TWalker) has combed over Thursday's matches to fish out the best value from a punting perspective.

Selection #1 - Rangers to beat Union St Gilloise

Rangers may only have taken four points from their three home matches so far in this competition, but Philippe Clement's men have faced some pretty stern opposition.

Both Lyon and Tottenham have already travelled to Ibrox this term, both of whom are among the favourites to win this tournament in May.

Rangers also comphehensively beat FCSB between those games and the 4-1 loss to Lyon is their only home defeat in all competitions since August.

Meanwhile, Belgian side Union St Gilloise head to Scotland having lost two of their three matches on the road in the Europa League.

In fact, their 1-0 win at struggling FC Twente at the end of November is their only win in six in this competition.

Putting all of this together, backing the home win looks the sensible option.

Selection #2 - Fenerbahce to beat Midtjylland

Fenerbahce head into this one unbeaten in eight matches in all competitions.

Their form has been patchy in the Europa League, though.

Jose Mourinho's men have picked up just one win in their last five, albeit coming on away soil with a 2-1 victory at Slavia Prague.

The result marks their only win away from home in this competition so far but they travel to a Midtjylland side who have found results as equally hard to come by in home fixtures.

The Danes have only won once on home turf in the Europa League and have struggled for results in front of their own fans more generally, having lost two of their last four at the MCH Arena in all competitions.

Selection #3 - Anderlecht to beat Hoffenheim

Hosts Anderlecht have only lost one of their last nine in the Europa League, where they're also unbeaten at home.

David Hubert's side have won three and drawn one at Lotto Park, maintaining a 100% scoring record while also recording two clean sheets.

They face a Hoffenheim side currently enduring a dismal run of form.

The German club have just a single win to their name in their last 12 in all competitions and have picked up only one win so far in the Europa League.

Christian Ilzer's men are also winless in their last five and remain well-poised for another disappointing showing in Belgium.
