Aston Villa vs Salzburg - Thursday, 29 January 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

Winner of its last 4 Europa League matches including last week in Istanbul, against Fenerbahçe 0-1, Aston Villa is only ahead of Lyon in the standings. The residents of Villa Park will indeed be there in the round of 16 given their clear lead over the 9th. They are also doing well in the Championship and complete the podium after taking all three points at Newcastle 0-2 last weekend. Unai Emery's team had not scored two wins for a month. A year after missing out on its subject in the Champions League, RB Salzburg is now in the league phase of the Europa League.

28th in the ranking despite its recent victory against FC Basel 3-1, it is 2 points behind the top 24 and can still play for a place in the play-offs. At the same time, the Austrian club is better negotiating its Championship campaign. Salzburg is the leader on the national scene but has found itself almost at a standstill for a month and a half due to the winter break in the country.

Basel vs Plzen - Thursday, 29 January 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

FC Basel will remain one of the disappointments of the league phase. Accustomed to competing in the Champions League over the last decade and quarter-finalists of the Europa League in 2020, the RotBlau occupy 27th position in the ranking and are 2 points behind the top 24. Worse, they remain with defeats against Genk 2-1, Aston Villa 1-2 and RB Salzburg 3-1. Since this last result, the Swiss team has consolidated its 4th place in the Championship thanks to a victory rich in goals obtained on the pitch of FC Zürich 3-4. Plzen 17th is guaranteed to compete in the play-offs but will not be able to enter the top 8 on this last day.

Still undefeated in this league phase 2 wins, 5 draws, the eighth finalist of the previous edition achieved the feat of winning on the pitch of AS Rome 1-2 at the start of the course before advancing slowly against Fenerbahçe 0-0, Friborg 0-0, Panathinaikos 0-0 and FC Porto 1-1. Plzen will return to the Championship next week after a month and a half of winter break. The Czech club negotiated well in friendly matches at the start of the month against Lugano and Sonderjyske wins 2-4 and 3-1.

Betis vs Feyenoord - Thursday, 29 January 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

8th in the early morning, Bétis has its destiny in its hands this evening. A victory and he will, at best, retain his eighth place, sending him directly to the 1/8 finals. Last week, the Verdiblancos still gave themselves a big scare by losing to POAK Salonika 2-0. In this C3, at home, Bétis beat Utrecht 2-1 and Lyon 2-0 and were held to a draw by Nottingham Forest on the first day 2-2. To make matters worse, last weekend, the Andalusians lost to Alaves in La Liga 2-1. A result which makes them lose ground in the top 5 of the championship. Crisis of confidence at the worst of times for Mr. Pellegrini's men.

 Qualified for the round of 32 of the Champions League last season, Feyenoord today finds itself playing second fiddle in the Europa League table, being, in the early hours of the morning, virtually eliminated from the 26th C3. A victory this evening on Spanish soil would suit the Dutch who would, most likely, jump into the qualifying seats to play in the round of 16. Last week, in a sort of last chance encounter, Feyenoord defeated Sturm Graz at home 3-0. As one victory often leads to another, in the process, Feyenoord won in the championship, against Heracles 4-2. A first victory in the Eredivisie since December 6. Before that, the visiting club had two defeats and two draws in the top flight. To mention the other results in C3, the Dutch club lost to FCSB 4-3, Celtic 1-3, Stuttgart 2-0 or even Aston Villa 0-2 and Braga 1-0.

Celtic vs Utrecht - Thursday, 29 January 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

Celtic have no questions asked tonight. It's win at all costs. Just 24th or last qualified for the round of 16, the Scottish club with multiple national championship titles in recent years could leave the top 24 even with a draw in the event of success of the main direct competitors at the same time. At home, recently, the supporters went through a bad period following the defeat against the archenemy, Rangers 1-3. A reaction was still provided by the players with a great success against Dundee 4-0. On the other hand, last weekend, in a clash with the elite leader, Hearts, Celtic were unable to win 2-2, losing ground in the title race and falling to 3rd position in the Premiership behind Rangers. In the Europa League last week, Martin O'Neill's men, reduced to ten men shortly after the half-hour mark, managed to return from Bologna with the point of a 2-2 draw, a lesser problem.

Otherwise, the Scots lost against AS Roma 0-3, at Midtjylland 3-1 and at home against Braga 0-2. With 1 symbolic point in its bag, Utrecht, regardless of the outcome of this meeting, will not qualify for the round of 16 of the Europa League. The only point gleaned was recorded at home for the reception of Porto, one of the most fashionable teams this season in Europe 1-1. For the rest, it is of course six defeats which took precedence at the heart of the Dutch balance sheet in the competition. Against Genk last week 0-2, for the reception of Nottingham 1-2, on the Bétis meadow 2-1, in Germany against Friborg 2-0, in Norway against Brann 1-0 and at home against OL during the very first score 0-1. Last weekend, in the championship, Utrecht suffered a fifth consecutive defeat in all competitions against Sparta Rotterdam 0-1.

Crvena zvezda vs Celta Vigo - Thursday, 29 January 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

11th in the ranking, Red Star Belgrade was able, as is often the case, to use its impregnable fortress to glean as many points as possible. FCSB won 1-0, Lille won 1-0 and Celtic 1-1, failed to defeat Belgrade. Of the local team's 13 points in total, 7 were scored at home. Last week, on the road against Malmö, RS did the job by winning by a narrow goal 0-1. Same score at Sturm Graz, 0-1 victory. In the event of a victory this evening, the local team would be on 16 points and very likely qualified for the round of 16. To find out if Roma, Ferencvaros, Bétis or Porto and Genk make missteps. With the championship still on standby, no match last weekend for the Serbian team.

 Celta Vigo is not in a strong position for a possible qualification in the 1/8th finals but can believe in it, provided they win this match. Last week, for the reception of the Dogues de Lille, reduced to ten, Vigo managed to find a way to win the game 2-1. With 12 points, the Galicians have won 4 matches for a record of 3 defeats. Victories gleaned against LOSC therefore, on the lawn of Dinamo Zagreb 0-3, for the reception of Nice 2-1 and PAOK Salonika 3-1. The losses took place in Stuttgart 2-1, in Bulgaria against Ludogorets 3-2 and against Bologna at home 1-2. Last weekend, as part of the 21st day of La Liga, the Celticos lost in the Basque Country against Real Sociedad 3-1. For information, Sociedad played ten against eleven for more than half-time and a half.

FCSB vs Fenerbahce - Thursday, 29 January 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

By being 29th in the ranking, the FCSB is virtually eliminated, but remains within striking distance of 24th place in the event of success and poor performance of the candidates for this spot. Victory is the only possible outcome for the Romanian club this evening, problem, they have lost their last 3 matches in all competitions. On the lawns of FC Arges in the championship 1-0 and Dinamo Zagreb last week in the Europa League 4-1, as well as last weekend in the championship for the reception of CFR Cluj 1-4. In the championship, the outgoing double title holder could even not participate in the final phase of the championship being outside the top 6 for the moment 11th. In C3, FCSB allowed itself the luxury of beating Feyenoord before Christmas 4-3, the second success in the competition after the one gleaned in the Netherlands against the Go Ahead Eagles 0-1. Apart from that, there are 5 defeats against Yong Boys 0-2, Bologna 1-2, FC Basel 3-1, Red Star Belgrade 1-0 and Dinamo Zagreb therefore. The yellow canaries of Fenerbahce are installed in 18th place in the ranking.

For the top 8, it's done, on the other hand, the objective now for the Turkish team will be to scrape a few places in order, possibly, to offer themselves a more lenient draw for the 16th finals. Last week, facing Aston Villa, Fener lost in their lair 0-1. A defeat which stopped a good series of invincibility of 5 matches in C3 with successes obtained against Nice 2-1, for the reception of Stuttgart 1-0 and on the pitch of Brann 0-4 and sharing the points with Plzen on the road 0-0 and Ferencvaros at home 0-0. Last weekend, thinking of getting back on track after the defeat in C3, Fenerbahce was unable to beat Goztepe in the championship 1-1. It's still been more than 20 days of the championship since Fenerbahce has conceded defeat.

FC Porto vs Rangers - Thursday, 29 January 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

Sitting in 9th place, on the doorstep of the top 8 and automatic qualification for the round of 16 of the competition, Porto are literally intractable this season. In all competitions, the Dragons have only lost twice. Once in the Europa League against Nottingham Forest 2-0 and once on the national scene, in a League Cup quarter-final against Guimaraes 1-3. Furthermore, since this defeat at the beginning of December, Porto has had 9 victories in a row in all competitions. Series which ended last week, on the side of Plzen in C3 1-1 with in particular a missed penalty from Samu. Monday evening, Farioli's men had a meeting with the very good opposition of Gil Vicente in the championship, result to follow. Remember that at home, in this Europa League, the Portuguese defeated Malmö 2-1, Nice 3-0 and Red Star Belgrade 2-1. 32nd in this league phase, the Rangers are eliminated from the competition.

Indeed, the Scots are 4 lengths behind in 24th place, held, for the record, by Celtic Glasgow. Moreover, the same Celtic that Rangers beat at the start of the month in the championship 1-3, allowing them to move into 2nd place. Last week, Rangers knocked Ludogorets aside 1-0, recording a 7th successive victory in all competitions. Last weekend, the visiting team passed the 9th by easily beating Dundee at home in the championship 3-0. It is clear that the Rangers woke up too late to appear in this C3. Note the defeats at Ferencvaros 2-1, for the reception of AS Roma 0-2, on the Brann side 3-0, in Austria against Sturm Graz 2-1 and against Genk 0-1.

G.A. Eagles vs Braga - Thursday, 29 January 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

This Go Ahead Eagles team has somewhat defied the predictions since no one saw them still in the race for the top 24 at this stage of the competition and with 6 points in their bag. If the GA Eagles conceded a fourth successive defeat in the competition in Nice last week 3-1, they were able to create a sensation by offering themselves Aston Villa 2-1 and Panathinaikos in Greece 1-2. Before the setback at the Aiglons, the Dutch had succumbed to the charm of the Lyonnais defeat 2-1, the Germans Stuttgart defeat 0-4 and the Austrians RB Salzburg 2-0. No championship to play last weekend, rest for the current 14th in the Eredivisie. For its part, Braga does not feel threatened and will play at least the 1/16 finals. However, the Portuguese would be well advised to return with at least the point of the draw in their pockets in order to maintain their rank in the top 8 and go directly to the 1/8th final.

With a little ambition, Braga should even seize success in order to grab a few places depending on the results of the competitors in order to take home advantage in the final phase. Last week was positive for Braga who beat Nottingham Forest in C3 1-0 and promoted Alverca to the championship 5-0. Better yet, the visiting team remained on a success against Tondela in the championship 0-1 and will therefore travel with the desire to glean a fourth success in a row in all competitions, all without conceding a goal. In this C3, Carlos Vicens' men took on Nice in the South of France 0-1, Red Star Belgrade at home 2-0, Celtic at home in Scotland 0-2 and Feyenoord at home 1-0. Let's not forget the prolific misstep against Genk at home 3-4, followed by a draw at Rangers 1-1.

Genk vs Malmo FF - Thursday, 29 January 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

10th in the Europa League with 1 point behind 8th place, Genk can believe in its chances of reaching the round of 16 directly. Nicky Hayen's men have conceded two losses since the start of the competition, against Ferencvaros 0-1 and on the pitch of Midtjylland 0-1. Otherwise, they won against Rangers 0-1, Braga 3-4, Basel 2-1 and Utrecht the week 0-2 and held off Betis 0-0. More in difficulty in its championship, the Belgian team is only 11th in the ranking with 26 points taken in 22 matches. Unable to win in the last six days 3 draws and 3 defeats, Genk has just shared the points, at home, against Cercle Bruges last weekend 1-1. Not at the level in this Europa League, Malmö is currently penultimate in the standings and can no longer hope to make the play-offs.

The Swedes pocketed their only point against Dinamo Zagreb at the end of October 1-1. Otherwise, they lost to Ludogorets 1-2, Plzen 3-0, Panathinaikos 0-1, Nottingham Forest 3-0, Porto 2-1 and Red Star Belgrade last week 0-1. On the national scene, Malmö closed its championship in a disappointing 6th place at the beginning of November. The 2026 championship will begin in April.

Lille vs Freiburg - Thursday, 29 January 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

21st in the league phase with 2 lengths ahead of the first club eliminated in 25th place, Lille is virtually qualified for the play-offs before the last day. The Mastiffs are, however, stuck in terrible form: 5 defeats in 5 matches including the previous C3 meeting, last Thursday, at Celta Vigo 2-1. This result brings his European record to 3 wins and 4 losses in this league phase. Since then, the northern club has missed the opportunity to bounce back in Ligue 1. Worse, it sank on its lawn Sunday against Strasbourg 1-4, sinking a little deeper into the crisis.

 Friborg is guaranteed to reach the round of 16 without going through the play-offs. Winner last Thursday of Maccabi Tel Aviv 1-0, the Black Forest club is in 3rd place in this unique group and remains undefeated 5 wins, 2 draws in the event. The German team maintained their form in the Bundesliga against Cologne 2-1 last weekend, a third match in a row without defeat in all competitions.

Ludogorets vs Nice - Thursday, 29 January 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

Ludogorets trails the top 24 by one point and retains high hopes of reaching the play-offs before this final league phase match. The Bulgarian club, however, missed the boat last Thursday by losing to Glasgow Rangers 1-0. A 4th defeat in 7 days, for 2 victories and a draw. The Razgrad-based team has not played since due to the winter break in Bulgaria. Ludogorets held friendly matches, in mid-January against Paks winning 2-3 and Rakow 2-2, and will return to competition on national soil next week. The club is virtually 3rd in the Championship.

 Weighed down by 6 defeats in as many days, it's been a while since 33rd Nice has had anything to play for in the Europa League. Le Gym nevertheless broke the spell last Thursday, taking its first points against Go Ahead Eagles 3-1. He continued his momentum on Sunday in Ligue 1 and inflicted a correction on FC Nantes 1-4. Undefeated in 5 of its last 6 matches in all competitions, the team now coached by Claude Puel is generally having a good start to the year after a soporific autumn, punctuated by 9 successive defeats when Franck Haise was still the coach.

Lyon vs PAOK - Thursday, 29 January 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

Winner of Go Ahead Eagles 2-1 and Young Boys Bern 0-1 in the last Europa League matches, Lyon has already ensured its qualification for the round of 16. The quarter-finalist of the last edition is the leader of this unique group with one of the best defenses, 3 goals conceded in 7 matches and is gaining confidence in all the tables at the moment. He has just gleaned, in the Championship against FC Metz 2-5, an eighth consecutive victory in all competitions. All the lights are green at the start of the year for OL. Opposite, PAOK struck a big blow last Thursday against Bétis 2-0 and was promoted to 12th place in the ranking, 2 points from the top 8.

Qualifying for the round of 16 will be the objective of the day for a Greek team guaranteed to participate in the play-offs. Its results grid is also full of excellent performances over the current period. PAOK eliminated Olympiakos in the National Cup 0-2 and consolidated its 3rd place in the Championship against OFI Crete 3-0 before, therefore, offering themselves Bétis. He did not play last weekend and is challenging Lyon on a series of 4 victories.

Maccabi Tel Aviv vs Bologna - Thursday, 29 January 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

This Europa League campaign will have turned into a nightmare for this Maccabi Tel Aviv team which only took a small point during the first 7 days, against PAOK Salonika, at the opening of this league phase. Since then, the Israelis have suffered a string of setbacks against Dinamo Zagreb 1-3, Midtjylland 0-3, Aston Villa 2-0, Lyon 0-6, Stuttgart 4-1 and finally against Freiburg 1-0 last Thursday. Consequently, this team already knows that it will not be able to go further in this competition where it brings up the rear in the ranking.

At the same time, Maccabi Tel-Aviv is in 3rd position in its championship with 10 units of disbursement on the leader. Beaten by Maccabi Haifa 4-1, they were aiming for a better result against Hapoel Tel Aviv in the derby on Monday evening.
