Best Tip: Both teams to score

W Lodz may feel positive ahead of this game and, funnily enough, so might Katowice. The bookmakers don't think there's much between them and neither do we – there's no obvious victor in this tie. So we look to the both teams to score market, where there's far more reason to be certain. The form stats, past head-to-head (H2H) records and bookies odds below are all pointing towards both sides scoring, and we think that's the tip to go with here.
