Best bets for British sides in Tuesday’s Champions League games
Published:
The final round of Champions League group games is upon us. And Manchester United, Chelsea and Celtic all have something to play for on Tuesday night.
United and Chelsea are both top of their respective groups and they’ll want to make sure they stay there.
It was always going to be tough for Celtic to progress from a group with Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich. They’ll drop into the Europa League if they avoid defeat at home to Anderlecht.
Here are the best bets in the games featuring these three teams:
Manchester United v CSKA Moscow
Man United will finish top of Group A as long as they avoid defeat by five goals against CSKA. That means Jose Mourinho is likely to make a few changes ahead of Sunday’s huge Manchester derby.
CSKA will need to go for it to have any chance of making the knockout stages. United to win and Both Teams to Score looks good value at 5/2.
Paul Pogba will be suspended for the derby, so he’ll be fully focused on this one. He’s 21/10 to score Anytime.
Chelsea v Atletico Madrid
Atletico Madrid have reached the Champions League final in two of the last four seasons. But they’re on the verge of being eliminated from their group this term.
Diego Simeone’s side have to win at Stamford Bridge to keep their hopes alive. They’ve scored 12 goals in their last four games. And that makes Over 2.5 Goals look tempting at Evens.
For Chelsea, Eden Hazard has looked sensational in recent weeks. Playing behind Alvaro Morata in a central role makes him an even bigger threat. The Belgian is 9/2 to score First.
Celtic v Anderlecht
Anderlecht have been the whipping boys of Group B. They lost 3-0 at home to Celtic and have no points from five games.
The Belgian champions don’t travel well in Europe. Hein Vanhaezebrouck’s side have yet to score an away goal in this year’s competition. Both Teams to Score – No is 11/8.
The Ladbrokes Premiership leaders will look to control this game. Celtic to win, Leigh Griffiths to have 3+ shots and Scott Brown to win 3+ tackles is also 9/2.
