If there is anything we have proven in last week’s Champions League football games, it is the fact that the competition isn’t over until it’s over.
Four more matches remain to be played this midweek with four more slots open in the quarter-finals, and sports betting fans can expect another thriller with the first-leg losers determined not to go down without a fight.
Juventus vs Porto (March 15, 03:45 GMT+8)
Undefeated in all their home games this 2017, the Italian Champions are the online betting favourites to advance to the next round with their two-goal advantage from the first leg.
Of course, the Portuguese leaders—behind Andre Silva and the in-form Tiquinho—are not at all hopeless considering that they scored 12 goals in their last three league games. However, it remains to be seen if they can display a level of competitiveness that is higher from what they are showing domestically.
I think Paulo Dybala and Gonzalo Higuain won’t allow this stage to end without scoring for the Old Lady, so a 🌟🌟🌟 bet for me is Juve Asian Handicap -0.75 @ 1.85.
Leicester City vs Sevilla (March 15, 03:45 GMT+8)
Following the sacking of Claudio Ranieri, the Foxes have been showing flashes of their former self that made them champions of England last season, and this could be the perfect opportunity for them to show everyone that they have what it takes to conquer Europe.
This game couldn’t come at a better time as well with Sevilla struggling to find their rhythm after their previous two games both ended in a 1-1 stalemate – the latest against lowly Leganes.
Leicester will also benefit from the extra rest they got from the postponement of their match with Arsenal, so my 🌟🌟 tip is on the Foxes Asian Handicap +0.50 @ 1.81.
AS Monaco vs Manchester City (March 16, 03:45 GMT+8)
With 84 goals in just 29 weeks of Ligue 1 football, Monaco are expected to show all their big guns at the Stade Louis II. They have nothing to lose and everything to gain in this reverse tie, so they might as well go all out offensively and see where it takes them.
Pep Guardiola’s City, however, still have the advantage not only with the collection of talent that they have but also with the fact that they haven’t conceded a single goal in their last six away games.
This one won’t be the same as the eight-goal thriller we have seen in the first leg, but I still predict a decent scoring from both sides. Hence, Goals Over 3.50 @ 2.02 sounds a good 🌟 punt.
Atletico Madrid vs Bayer Leverkusen (March 16, 03:45 GMT+8)
Bayer haven’t won in any game since their defeat to the Spanish giants last month, and it should be worrying for them that they have conceded 13 goals in the process which include a 6-2 loss to Dortmund.
New boss Tayfun Korkut will be determined to keep Bayer in the running, but it’s doubtful that he’ll be able to find an immediate fix for his inconsistent outfit.
Not to mention that they’ll be facing an Atletico side with Kevin Gameiro and Antoine Griezmann heading the frontline.
Another 🌟🌟 bet for me is Atletico First Half Asian Handicap -0.25 @ 1.86.
