Wolverhampton’s perfect three-match run makes them the standout pick on this pool, with Sparta Rotterdam’s step up in class over Telstar the safest secondary angle. Cercle Brugge and AC Monza’s home platforms against inconsistent opposition offer further value, while Stellenbosch vs Marumo Gallants looks the most likely draw given both sides’ recent stalemates.
This all-French Ligue 2 card is dominated by three recently relegated Ligue 1 clubs, Metz, Montpellier and Saint-Etienne, all arriving with strong recent form against lower-level opposition. Saint-Etienne’s perfect three-match run and Metz’s own unbeaten streak stand out as the clearest bankers, while Nancy vs Montpellier looks set for goals given both sides’ attacking edge.

Saint-Etienne’s perfect three-match run and Metz’s own unbeaten streak make them the two clearest bankers on this pool, both drawing on the squad depth of recently relegated Ligue 1 clubs against weaker Ligue 2 opposition. Reims and Montpellier round out the safer picks with their own superior recent form, while Guingamp vs Boulogne stands out as the round’s most likely draw given neither side has found a win in their last three.
