Three Champions League qualifiers Tuesday. Here are the best parlay combinations across Sabah FK vs Hapoel Be'er Sheva, LASK vs Celtic, and Bodø/Glimt vs NEC Nijmegen.
UEFA Champions League Tuesday Picks & Best Parlays – August 25
Three UEFA Champions League qualification fixtures hit the card on Tuesday August 25, and the odds markets are throwing up some genuinely interesting angles. We've broken down each game and built two parlay combinations that offer real value without chasing inflated lines. Let's get into it.
Game-by-Game Breakdown
Sabah FK vs Hapoel Be'er Sheva (17:45 UTC)
The market is hesitant to commit here, with Sabah FK priced at -115 (DraftKings) as a modest home favourite. That's a narrow edge, and the draw at +285 (betPARX) is interesting given how tight this looks on paper. What stands out most is the total line. betPARX has Over 2.5 goals at -135 and Under 2.5 at -108 - the juice on the under is surprisingly light for a competitive qualification tie. We lean Under 2.5 here; high-stakes knockout football at this stage tends to breed caution, and -108 is excellent value for what is effectively a coin-flip line.
LASK vs Celtic (20:00 UTC)
Celtic are priced as road favourites at +245 (betPARX), which tells you everything about the gap in perceived quality between these sides. LASK are available at -105 (DraftKings) but that feels like the market leaning on home advantage rather than any genuine form edge. The Over 2.5 here is chalky at -179 (betPARX) - that's hard to include in a parlay without killing the value. The Under 2.5 at +120 (betPARX) is a genuine standout price. Celtic tend to be disciplined in European away fixtures and LASK have everything to lose if they concede early. This Under looks generous at plus-money and is our strongest single-game value call of the slate.
Bodø/Glimt vs NEC Nijmegen (20:00 UTC)
Bodø/Glimt are heavy home favourites at -208 (DraftKings), and that market confidence is reflected in the total sitting at Over 3.5 goals rather than 2.5. The Norwegian side have a well-earned reputation for high-tempo, attacking football at Aspmyra, and NEC Nijmegen arrive as significant underdogs. Over 3.5 at -135 (betPARX) has real appeal given Bodø/Glimt's aggressive home style, and the Glimt moneyline at -208 is short enough to only make sense in a parlay context. The +440 on NEC (betPARX) is a flier worth a small stake if you want a long-shot single, but we're not including it in our main combinations.
Parlay Combinations
Parlay 1 - Value Double: Under Goals in Both European Ties
Our primary parlay pairs the two most value-rich legs on the slate. We're taking Under 2.5 goals in Sabah FK vs Hapoel Be'er Sheva (-108, betPARX) with Under 2.5 goals in LASK vs Celtic (+120, betPARX). Both fixtures are high-stakes qualification matches where neither side can afford a costly defeat - expect tactical, low-scoring football. The Celtic under is the headline value here at plus-money. Combined, this double comes in around +198, giving you close to 3/1 on two defensively sound picks.
- Under 2.5 - Sabah FK vs Hapoel Be'er Sheva: -108 (betPARX)
- Under 2.5 - LASK vs Celtic: +120 (betPARX)
- Combined parlay odds: +198
Parlay 2 - Three-Leg Mixed Parlay
For those wanting a bigger return, we're adding a third leg. Take Bodø/Glimt on the moneyline (-208, DraftKings) - they're dominant enough at home to justify inclusion despite the short price - and combine it with the two unders above. Yes, -208 hurts the overall odds, but the confidence level in a Glimt home win is high enough to anchor the parlay. This three-legger lands at approximately +278, close to 4/1 on a combination that has a clear logical throughline: home banker plus two tactical low-scoring ties.
- Under 2.5 - Sabah FK vs Hapoel Be'er Sheva: -108 (betPARX)
- Under 2.5 - LASK vs Celtic: +120 (betPARX)
- Bodø/Glimt moneyline: -208 (DraftKings)
- Combined parlay odds: +278
Best Value Flag
The standout value call of the day is Under 2.5 in LASK vs Celtic at +120 (betPARX). Plus-money on the under in a European qualifier featuring two sides with strong defensive records is genuinely generous. The implied probability at +120 is around 45.5%, yet the conditions strongly favour a cagey, tight affair. If you're playing a single bet today, this is it.
