With the Europa League back in full swing and two London clubs both active, we thought it would only be right if we tried something different. I will offer not one, not two, but three multi-match bet constructors for this game with different prices covering both of these games.
Without further ado, let’s look at what we can put together for these two games.
Thursday 9 March: 5.45pm (BT Sport)
AEK Larnaca vs West Ham
Sporting Lisbon vs Arsenal

West Ham wins
It’s not often that I recommend supporting West Ham and they gave us a good reason for how unpredictable and poor they’ve been all year. They are still faltering after their 4-0 win against Brighton at the weekend and they will try to find a way to bounce back. What better way to recover from a tough defeat than by beating a team who are currently runners-up in the Cypriot Premier League – a league that has both Mick McCarthy and former Man Utd left-back Alexander Buttner within chewed and spat out for a few weeks.
Both teams to score, No
Despite suffering some big losses this season, West Ham have conceded the ninth fewest goals in the Premier League this season, conceding fewer than Man Utd and Tottenham Hotspur. We’re betting that David Moyes has stabilized the ship a bit and that the Hammers will have a clean sheet win in Cyprus on Thursday night.
Arsenal wins
Arsenal have been great this season and we expect nothing less from them in the Europa League. Sporting have lost just two games in their last 10, both defeats to rivals Porto, but the quality Arsenal have at their disposal and the strength they showed in that comeback against Bournemouth on Saturday would make us want Arsenal to support here.
Players with 1 or more Shots on Goal – Bukayo Saka
Golden boy Bukayo Saka is always good for a shot and he’s a man who can handle any situation. We expect him to have a big impact in this game, commanding his side of the pitch and putting pressure on Sporting defender Matheus Reis, leading to general chaos in defence.

Over 1.5 goals
We can see goals in this game, mainly from West Ham, but it’s nice to have a little support should AEK manage to smuggle one past Alphonse Areola. About 1.5 the scream here.
Danny Ings scores first
Former Liverpool and Southampton man Danny Ings has found form again since arriving from Aston Villa in January. He has scored twice since arriving, with just seven shots total. Ings has a great price to score in this game and we believe he will be the man to open this game.
Issahaku Fatawu is to be shown a card
This man will be in charge of guarding Bukayo Saka on the field throughout the evening, he will be destined for trouble. Even if he can manage Saka, he’ll have to match Martin Odegaard as Fatawu takes the position of left-back, leaving him between two of the Premier League’s leading stars and we reckon he’s destined to carve his way in finding the referee’s book as they place rings around him.

West Ham wins
We’ve covered that above, West Ham need a win and they’re up against a side they can more than beat in 90 minutes.
Larnaca receives the most cards
With West Ham expected to spend most of the game with the ball and in attacking positions, we’d imagine Larnaca will be a bit off pace in timing their tackles against their Premier League opponents. This should be enough to book them more than the Hammers overall.
Danny Ings to score at any time
Danny Ings will influence this game. There is no doubt about it. He’s taken his chances since arriving in west London and we expect to see the same on Thursday night. He has tons of talent and should be able to wreak havoc on this AEK defense.
Martin Odegaard on goal or assist
Martin Odegaard now plays in a slightly broader position than before for Arsenal but that hasn’t stifled his final product at all. He has nine goals and six assists so far this year but surprisingly he hasn’t scored a goal or assists in the Europa League this season.
However, as the stakes rise in the season, we expect his performance to do the same and for him to either provide Sporting or score.
Under 12.5 corners
Despite Saturday’s breakaway, which saw Arsenal take 17 corners in total, we expect Sporting to play more evenly here overall. There have been under 12.5 corners in seven of Arsenal’s previous eight games. We expect the trend to continue.
Sporting Lisbon receives the most cards
Sporting will be under immense pressure for 90 minutes in this game. Given how well Arsenal have played this season, Sporting will have a tough task keeping everything under control, especially with some young players in defence. Arsenal have been fairly disciplined overall this season, with Bukayo Saka interestingly being the most-booked player.
Over 3.5 maps
Arsenal concede around 10 fouls per game on average, but win around 13 free-kicks per game overall. With Sporting set to counter-attack and Arsenal boasting Granit Xhaka, there will be a great opportunity to see some bookings in this game, especially as Lisbon’s back five look to deal with Arsenal’s wealth of attacking options.
