Celta Vigo – PAOK Thessaloniki Tip Europa League, playoffs, second leg on Thursday, 26.02.26 at 21:00 CET
I have decided on a very safe Celta Vigo PAOK Saloniki tip, which promises “only” odds of about 1.50 in case of success, but can still be very useful for you – namely DC 1X & Under 3.5 goals.
A great new customer offer such as the Sportwetten.de welcome bonus can also be implemented quickly with betting ideas like these. Personally, however, I have decided on the offer of a competitor with regard to Thursday.
About the betting decision itself: PAOK already had an xG value of only 0.61 in the first leg, and without the suspended Andrija Zivkovic, the Greeks are now also missing the undisputed leader of the pack, who has been an integral part of their own midfield for years.
If you ask me, this game splashes along for a long time with a score of 0-0 before the Galicians close the bag.
Celta Vigo vs. PAOK Thessaloniki AI Predictions:
1st half under 1.5 goals promises odds around 1.40 at best, even with the best German bookmakers. But this time, too, I am primarily convinced by the disproportionately high probability of occurrence of this betting proposal.
After all, Celta’s defence won 2-0 against Mallorca in La Liga just a few days ago and allowed almost nothing at all at the back with a total xGA value of 0.04 over the entire season.
With such a well-functioning three-man backline at the moment with Aidoo as the central link, it can only be 0-0 or 1-0 for the hosts against PAOK at half-time.

The selection Highest-scoring half: 2nd half is also worth considering at odds of around 2.00 at Winamax Germany and other proven bookmakers.
Although I don’t see any substantial value in this Celta Vigo PAOK Saloniki AI prediction, since I strongly assume a zero number at the change of ends, theoretically only a single goal after the restart is enough to ensure the success of this bet.
However, in terms of pure risk-reward ratio, I’m most convinced by the third computer-generated betting proposal – to win Celta & Under 2.5 goals at really attractive values of around 3.80.
