Context last updated 23 Aug 2026, 00:06 · Europe/Bucharest

Brighton are strong favourites to advance, but the odds overstate their dominance; the best value is in Both Teams to Score 'Yes' at 2.15 (edge +8.5pts).

Avoid the heavily juiced Over 2.5 goals and first-half goal markets, as the tie is likely to be tighter than the market expects.
