It's a relatively quiet Wednesday but there are five vital Champions League qualifiers to consider with Leverkusen's game against Lazio and Brugge/Man Utd two of the more intriguing ties, while there are three cup ties from the UK to look at including Rangers trip to Airdrie. Here are the short previews and suggested bets for the best of the action tonight. Champions League Qualification
20:45 Bayer Leverkusen vs Lazio - Prediction 2.0- Suggested Bets - Leverkusen to qualify @5/4 Leverkusen take on Lazio, trailing 1.0 from the first leg and I fancy them to turn it around tonight at a decent price of 5/4 to qualify. The Germans won 4 of their last 5 at home in this competition, including their most recent victory last season over beaten finalists of 2014 Atletico and I expect their experience to count here against a Lazio playing their first away game in the Champions League for 8 years. The hosts are as short as 4/7 to win on the night so while qualification isn't guaranteed with a win alone, I do feel they can get the better of the Italian side and make it through to the group stages. 20:45 Club Bruges Vs Manchester United - Prediction - 2.2 - Suggested Bets -BTTS @4/5 I expect some goals here with Bruges giving it their best shot but falling short against a Man Utd side that will start with Fellaini up front. Really. The first leg was really open and Bruges showed a lot of good attacking intent and while they are missing some players tonight, I do feel they can put on a good showing in front of their own fans. The Belgians have a decent history in this tournament and have scored in 14 of 17 home ties going back 15 years so while they are unlikely to turn the tie around, I do feel they can put some pressure on the English side and we might see a decent game as a result. United of course are big favourites but their form has been poor and if the Belgians can get at them early, it might not be as easy as people expect. 20:45 CSKA Moscow vs Sporting CP - Prediction 2.1 - Suggested Bets - BTTS @4/6 Sporting travel to Moscow with a 2.1 first leg advantage and I believe goals are the way to go here. CSKA have only won 2 of their last 13 home fixtures in this tournament so a home win is not worth betting on at just over evens while the BTTS outcome has occurred in 7 of their last 8 on their own patch. Sporting are a decent side and with 6 of their last 7 fixtures in the Champions League seeing BTTS, I am confident of a repeat tonight with BTTS @4/6 and the visitors perhaps sneaking through overall. 20:45 APOEL Nicosia vs FC Astana - Prediction 1.0 - Suggested Bets - no bets I've decided to leave this out after previously fancying the home side to win. Let's see what happens now. 20:45 Partizan Belgrade vs BATE Borisov - Prediction - Suggested Bets - No bets Too tough to call. England - Capital One Cup 20:45 Barnsley vs Everton - Prediction - 1.2 - Suggested Bets - BTTS @4/5, BTTS and over 2.5 @6/5 Barnsley are performing well at the moment with and goals are being tipped up here @5/6 for BTTS and that's what I'm on here while BTTS and over 2.5 @6/5 looks good to me. Everton have had some bad results in cups in recent years and while they should win, I will be hoping for some goals. Scotland - League Cup 20:45 Hibernian vs Stranraer - Prediction - Suggested Bets - no bets Sorry Hibs, I don't like you :) 20:45 Airdrieonians vs Rangers - Prediction - 0.3 - Suggested Bets - Rangers to win -1 @1/2 Rangers will be too strong for Airdrie tonight and they should cover the handicap @1/2. Suggested Bets Leverkusen to qualify @5/4 CSKA V Sporting - BTTS @4/6, BTTS and over 2.5 @ Bruges v Man Utd - BTTS @4/5 Barnsley v Everton - BTTS @4/5, BTTS and over 2.5 @6/5 Rangers - 1 to win @1/2 Comments are closed.
