With only two sets of football games left in the Champions League group stage, Liverpool, Sevilla, Leipzig, Monaco and CSKA Moscow will hope to get a win now and increase their chances of making it to the Round of 16.
The stakes are high as a loss could cost them a ticket to the next round; and with betting odds tight among these hopefuls, the midweek showdown will certainly be a live betting spectacle.
Sevilla vs Liverpool (November 22, 03:45 GMT+8)
Sevilla host Liverpool in the battle for the top spot in Group E. A Reds’ win will see Jurgen Klopp’s men through the next stage, while a home victory will see Sevilla in tight control of the group and Liverpool possibly in a perilous situation of exiting the tournament—especially if Spartak Moscow win against Maribor.
Liverpool, though, will like their chances after four straight wins in all competitions, averaging three goals a game during that stretch. Not to mention that they have Sadio Mane back and fit to play in the match.
If there’s one thing the Reds have to be cautious about Eduardo Berizzo’s men though, it’s their terrific home form as the Sevillistas haven’t lost at home for a year now.
This match has the potential to end in a draw, just like their first meeting. Nonetheless, with the Merseyside club’s current form, I think they are in a good to position to win. Considering all this, a 🌟🌟🌟 bet on Liverpool Draw No Bet @ 2.02 is the way to go.
AS Monaco vs RB Leipzig (November 22, 03:45 GMT+8)
Leipzig are certainly rueing their failure to win against Porto the last time out, but they don’t have time to weep in frustration as they face Monaco who are still dreaming of making it past the group stage.
The French giants are still without a win in Group G, so the smart money is definitely on the Bulls winning this affair. However, make no mistake; Monaco are on a good run lately and will be hard to beat at home where they have scored eight goals in their last two.
Leipzig, meanwhile, haven’t won in their last three away games, conceding seven goals in the process.
Unlike their first meeting, there should be more goals this time. I believe Monaco have a legitimate chance of getting their first win here as well with top-scorer Radamel Falcao returning and giving them a boost. With that said, I have a pair of 🌟🌟 tips: Monaco Asian Handicap -0.25 @ 2.07 and Goals Over 2.75 @ 1.85.
CSKA Moscow vs Benfica (November 23, 01:00 GMT+8)
Benfica no longer have anything to lose, so the pressure to perform and fight to see another day is on CSKA Moscow.
Despite being winless and pointless in the competition, however, Benfica still won’t be a walk in the park for the Russian outfit. Not with the Portuguese powerhouse unbeaten in five straight Primeira Liga fixtures.
Though, it should give CSKA Moscow some confidence that they beat this team 2-1 last September.
The tell-tale signs are there that this will be a tightly-contested affair that could even end up goalless, so a 🌟 bet for me is 1×2 Draw @ 3.30.
