Nice v Sheriff Tiraspol

Nice are unbeaten in their last 11 matches, including a 1-0 win over Sheriff Tiraspol in the first leg of this tie and with the away side having to force the issue at some point, the hosts can win again.

Ferencvaros v Bayer Leverkusen

Bayer Leverkusen showed their attacking quality in their first leg win over Ferencvaros and they are likely to have too much for the Hungarians once again here.

West Ham v AEK Larnaca

West Ham recorded a comfortable 2-0 win over AEK Larnaca last week and even with David Moyes planning to make a few changes, they should advance to the quarter-finals on the back of another win.

Arsenal v Sporting

Arsenal have kept just six clean sheets in 17 home games in all competitions this season so take Sporting to get on the scoresheet, although the Gunners' quality is fancied to tell in the end.
