UEFA Europa League picks for Ajax vs. Brighton
Before you tune in to Thursday's match, you need to see the Europa League picks from betting expert Martin Green. After working in the sports betting industry for several years, Green became a professional sports writer and handicapper and has covered the game worldwide. Since last year's World Cup, Green has been profitable in multiple areas on his soccer picks, including the Champions League (+4.78 units), the FA Cup (+3.07), the EFL Cup (+3.64), Euro 2024 qualifiers (+3.01) and the Europa League (+1.60).
For Brighton vs. Ajax, Green is picking Brighton to win and both teams to score for a +140 payout. The Seagulls are in the midst of a losing streak, but are 3-1-1 at home in league play this season and can snap their losing streak against an Ajax team that is a shell of its old self.
The Dutch side will still find the back of the net since Brighton's midfield isn't as strong as it has been in previous years. However, the expert believe's Brighton's offense will shine through.
"Brighton boast a wealth of attacking quality, including Kaoru Mitoma, Ansu Fati and Evan Ferguson," Green told SportsLine. "That should give the Seagulls enough firepower to take advantage of the chaos at Ajax by securing their first win of the Europa League campaign on Thursday." Stream the game here.
