Today’s set of football betting picks are as equally exciting as the ones we saw last time out.
Games featuring Chelsea and Manchester United are the most interesting spectacles of the four Champions League ties happening in the midweek. We can be sure that betting odds will be tight as the Spanish Armada — led by the mighty Barcelona — try and topple the clubs of the English Premier League.
Manchester United vs Sevilla (March 14, 03:45 GMT+8)
This is a must-win battle for both sides.
Jose Mourinho must make sure Sevilla will not score after United failed to snatch an away-goal advantage in the first leg. With the quality of players and supporters the Red Devils have, Mourinho should have no problem handling Los Nervionenses.
Vincenzo Montella will surely do something to steal a win from Old Trafford. Wissam Ben Yedder is surely a part of his game plan, and the Manchester defence better keeps him in check.
I think this game will go to extra time, but Old Trafford should be able to do its magic. My first pick is Manchester United -0.75 @ 1.94 for 🌟🌟.
AS Roma vs Shakhtar Donetsk (March 14, 03:45 GMT+8)
Roma are coming into the second leg of their Champions League tie with Shakhtar at a minor disadvantage. The away-goal benefits scored by Cengiz Under was undermined by consecutive goals by their hosts.
Roma have been rather inconsistent at Stadio Olimpico as of late, but I’m confident they can win the series here. Shakhtar are terrible away from home, losing two of their three away games in the group stages.
Edin Dzeko should be able to redeem himself in front of the home crowd, so my second tip is Roma -0.75 @ 1.88 for another 🌟🌟.
Besiktas JK vs Bayern Munich (March 15, 01:00 GMT+8)
I don’t even know what to say about this game.
After witnessing such a beatdown during the first leg, I don’t think there’s anyone who is doubting Bayern’s entry to the quarterfinals. Anyone would feel weak after seeing Thomas Muller and Robert Lewandowski pounded goal after goal after goal.
I’m sure that Bayern won’t let Besiktas outscore them 6-0 on the second leg, so this game is already in the bag. The question is whether there will be goals this game. I don’t think Josef Heynckes will push his lads any further, so my third tip is Besiktas +0.75 @ 2.19 for 🌟.
Barcelona vs Chelsea (March 15, 03:45 GMT+8)
Of course, I have to save the best for last!
Barcelona have the slight advantage coming into the second leg after Lionel Messi’s goal ended the game at Stamford Bridge 1-1. They now play at Camp Nou, ready to protect their lead and advance to the next round.
Antonio Conte and the Blues are pretty much out of Champions League contention if they fail to win their games in the Premier League, so the Champions League is their only way to make it back to the contest next season. Barca will have their full-strength squad at Camp Nou, so there should be no reason for them to lose.
However, I think this will end in a draw, so my final tip is Chelsea +1.00 @ 2.26 for 🌟.
