IT’s the night of the big guns as Barcelona, PSG and Liverpool are all at home and that can only mean one thing – goals.
Skybet Special – 8pm UCL matches
When I looked at tonight’s matches, the first thing thing that jumped out to me was we have three of the tournament's big hitters all playing at home.
PSG host Napoli – both sides have been in sensational form and it should be a cracker. What I like is Napoli have scored in 11 of their last 12 away UCL matches – I don’t think they’ll be a match for PSG But are more than capable of scoring. PSG I’d expect will net at least twice but the form they are in it could easily be 3 or 4.
Barcelona are at home to Inter and this is very similar to the PSG match – the two teams flying. Inter are on for 8 consecutive wins but Barca have already shown this season they are at their best and we should see goals here.
Last but not least, Liverpool welcome Red Star Belgrade, a side who will make it tough at home but won’t be able to compete on the road as shown by their 6-1 hammering away to PSG.
Liverpool have been a shadow of last season's side especially in front of goal but this is the perfect opportunity to find that scoring touch again.
These three matches alone should yield around 12 goals and that will make a significant contribution to the Skybet total goals special which I think is generous given the sides in action tonight.
I wouldn’t rule out seeing goals also in the Dortmund v Atletico Madrid matches.
