I appreciate I have done a fair few Champions League articles in recent days/weeks so here is a UEFA Europa League roundup for you guys covering all the games involving British teams this evening. With West Ham, Rangers, Celtic and West Ham all in action there was plenty for me to get my teeth stuck into and find out all the relevant info you should know about these games before considering a bet. I will also offer some of my own predictions and tips to hopefully assist you with your bets. Happy reading!
Legia Warsaw v Leicester City Preview
Leicester will be hoping a result tonight will hopefully kick-start what has been a frustratingly inconsistent start to the season. Many, including myself, expected the Foxes to really kick on this season following an impressive transfer window but that hasn’t yet happened. They travel to Poland to take on Polish giants Legia Warsaw who have a formidable home record.
Given the quality of both their squad and their manager, a turnaround in form is surely round the corner for Leicester. A result tonight could be exactly what is needed to turn their season around and I expect them to get. Legia will be a tough opponent, no doubt but the English side have so much more quality within their ranks which should see them through. 3-1 Foxes win my prediction for this one.


Sparta Prague v Rangers Preview
Important game tonight for Gers as they look to get their first points on the board in Group A as they return to the Czech Republic once more to take on Sparta Prague. They won’t have fond memories of the Czech capital following their last 16 3-1 aggregate defeat against Slavia Prague in a fiery round of 16 clash last season. They will be hoping to right those wrongs tonight and are in need of some points following their match day 1 defeat at home to Lyon a fortnight ago.
Very, very tough game to call and the bookies agree with both sides at pretty much identical prices to win the game this evening. The absences in the Gers side worry me, especially with Goldson not out leaving them incredibly short at the back. The absence of fans to an extent is something of a leveller and for that reason I fancy a score draw in this one, 1-1.


Celtic v Bayer Leverkusen
Some game at Celtic Park tonight as German giants Bayer Leverkusen come to Glasgow and I am expecting fireworks. Watching the Hoops this season has been mightily entertaining as their 4-3 loss to Betis a couple of weeks ago can prove. Form isn’t actually great with Celtic down in 6th in the Premiership and without a point so far in Europe but performances have been pretty decent in my opinion. Ange Postecoglou has questioned the "narrative" that his team are "struggling" and there is no doubt at times his side have played some fantastic football.
Celtic really haven’t been as bad as results suggest and the return of a number of key players is sure to boost them in the long run. However Leverkusen have started the season very strongly and are currently flying in the Bundesliga. Expect them to just about get the better off Celtic in what should be a goalsy affair. 3-2 Leverkusen win is my prediction in this one.


West Ham v Rapid Vienna
The final British team we look at this evening will be West Ham as they host Austrian outfit Rapid Vienna this evening hoping to continue their 100% start to the Europa League campaign. The Hammers were fantastic registering a 2-0 win in Croatia against Dinamo Zagreb and are surely favourites to top Group H which also contains Belgian outfit Genk.
Despite the changes, the players coming in for West Ham tonight should be keen to impress and have more than enough quality to beat a depleted and out of form Rapid Vienna side. This is the first European game West Ham have hosted since 2006 and a big crowd is expected and they should be buzzing for this one. Fancy a very comfortable West Ham win 3-0.
