The midweek Champions League action is over but now it's on to the Europa League and Europa Conference League, we've picked out a fourfold acca from the two competitions.
Selections
- Arsenal to win and over 2.5 goals at 8/15
- Manchester United to win to nil at 4/5
- Roma to beat Real Betis at 4/5
- West Ham to beat Anderlecht at 21/20
Gunners to win entertaining Emirates clash
Arsenal have been flying domestically this season, sitting top of the Premier League, and they've won their only outing in the Europa League.
After a summer of investment, Mikel Arteta has a strong and deep squad so, even if he does opt to rotate, he has plenty of options to try and secure a second successive win in Europe on Thursday.
Bodo/Glimt provide Arsenal's next test as they look to further strengthen their grip on top spot in Group A, having picked up four points from their opening two games.
A draw at PSV to kick off the group stage demonstrated Bodo's ability to frustrate on their travels and they could be good for at least a goal when they head to the Emirates.
Arsenal have been stunning in the final third but they still have some issues to iron out defensively, conceding at least one in five of their last six across all competitions. Ultimately, Arsenal should prove too strong but it's likely this game will throw up plenty of goalmouth action.
United can ease to Cypriot win
Staying in the Europa League, Manchester United are looking to bounce back after their 6-3 thrashing at the hands of Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday.
The Red Devils hit the road and head for Cyprus to take on minnows Omonia Nicosia on Thursday.
Real Sociedad, likely to be United's biggest challengers for top spot in Group E, beat Erik ten Hag's side 1-0 on Matchday one, however, United eased to a 2-0 win over Sheriff Tiraspol last time out in the competition.
A trip to Cyprus isn't expected to throw up any major issues for United with Omonia, who are managed by Neil Lennon, sitting bottom of the section without a single point. They've scored just once in their opening two games and may find it tough to add to that tally in front of goal when United visit.

Home rule in Rome
One of the tastier-looking games in the Europa League on Matchday three comes from the Stadio Olimpico when Roma host Real Betis.
The Italian outfit start this round of fixtures sitting third with three points from their first two games and they are already playing catch up on table-toppers Betis, who have won two in a row.
Roma are full of confidence after coming from behind to beat Inter Milan 2-1 at the San Siro on Saturday, while they can also call on some strong home form this season.
Jose Mourinho's outfit have won three of their four outings in Rome across all competitions and should have too much for Betis.
The Spanish club have lost two of four on their travels, including a 1-0 defeat when they travelled to Celta Vigo in their most recent away game.
Hammers to continue perfect start
We finish off our accumulator with a selection from the Europa Conference League as West Ham look to keep building momentum.
They head to Anderlecht on Thursday knowing that a third straight European win in Belgium would put them on the verge of securing a route through to the knockout phase.
West Ham's Premier League form finally seems to be getting back to a more familiar level after a slow start and that just adds to their perfect European record after picking up successive wins over FCSB and Silkeborg.
Anderlecht haven't impressed in the competition yet, scoring just once, and West Ham should have their number.
