Dan Fitch previews the pick of the Europa Conference League games and he fancies Rennes to claim a comfortable win against Mura.

The Group C leaders Roma travel to second placed Bodo/Glimt, in what looks like the most difficult fixture for Jose Mourinho’s team.
We all know that Mourinho loves to get a trophy in the bank when he moves to a new club and with this competition looking very winnable, it’s no surprise to see that he’s taking it seriously in terms of team selection. Roma won their opening game 5-1 against CSKA Sofia and then beat Zorya 3-0.
Glimt are also unbeaten, beating Zorya 3-1 and then drawing 0-0 away at CSKA Sofia. Roma should win, but with Glimt unbeaten in 14 games (W11 D3) they should make it tough. A Roma win and both teams to score is 3.39/4.
In-form Bundesliga side can avoid defeat
Feyenoord 2.26/5 v Union Berlin 3.211/5; The Draw 3.613/5

Group E is very close, with the leaders Feyenoord only a point ahead of third placed Union Berlin.
Feyenoord drew away at Maccabi Haifa, before winning 2-1 at home against Slavia Prague. Union Berlin lost 3-1 at Slavia Prague in a match in which they played with ten men for an hour and then bounced back with a 3-0 home victory over Maccabi Haifa.
Union are doing very well in the Bundesliga. Fifth in the table, they have only lost one of their eight games (W4 D3) and that defeat came to Borussia Dortmund. The Germans are 1.75/7 to avoid defeat in the Double Chance market.
Rennes will claim vital three points
Mura 8.88/1 v Rennes 1.341/3; The Draw 4.84/1

This game takes place in Group G, where Spurs are top, ahead of Rennes by way of goal difference.
Rennes drew 2-2 with Tottenham at home and then pulled off a big win, as they came from behind to beat Vitesse 2-1 on the road. They are now unbeaten in five matches across all competitions (W4 D1), which includes a 2-0 home win against PSG.
Mura are the whipping boys of this group, being comfortably beaten in their two games. Rennes are 2.111/10 to win half-time/full-time.
Gent struggling on the road
Partizan Belgrade 2.226/5 v Gent 3.55/2; The Draw 3.3512/5

Group B is the only group in which two teams have a perfect record and they meet in this match.
It’s Partizan that are top on goal difference, after winning 2-0 at Anorthosis and then again by the same scoreline, at home to Flora. Gent won 1-0 at Flora and then 2-0 at home to Anorthosis.
The Belgians have struggled on the road this season, winning on two of their nine games (D1 L6). Back Partizan to claim a vital win at 2.226/5.
