With two games to go in Group A Manchester United’s fate is currently out of their own hands.
They must win in Turkey tonight, but even two more victories could see them eliminated if FC Copenhagen win their two remaining matches. That’s for another day however, all Erik ten Hag will be concerned with is picking up three points at Galatasaray.
The Turkish side stunned Old Trafford when they came from behind to win 3-2 on Matchday 2, their only win in the group stages so far. A win for Gala this evening would guarantee Europa League football at least, while eliminating United.
It’s been a disastrous campaign for the Red Devils. 11 goals conceded in four games and their only points secured thanks to a last gasp penalty save against Copenhagen.
Things are looking a bit brighter domestically but they’ve been so fragile in Europe that you couldn’t be backing them at 29/20 to get the win they crave.
Galatasary are 13/8 but goals could be a better angle. Each of their matches have gone Over 2.5 with three of the four seeing Over 3.5. The former pays just 4/7 and the latter a more tempting 11/8.
Walter Mazzarri leads Napoli for the first time in the Champions League against Real Madrid. He’s was drafted in to replace Rudi Garcia after 16 games in charge and started his reign with a 2-1 win at Atalanta on Saturday.
A win tonight would see him book the Serie A champions a place in the last 16.
Madrid won 3-2 in Naples and this looks another game where goals are guaranteed. Over 2.5 is priced up 7/10 but BTTS might be a better shout at 8/13.
Six different players have scored for Napoli in Group C with Kvaratskhelia and Osimhen yet to get on the scoresheet so they look more than capable of notching in the Bernabeu.
Braga can land the spoils in the their match against struggling Union Berlin. The Bundesliga side are another who have replaced their manager. Former Trabzonspor coach Nenad Bjelica was appointed on Sunday with the club second bottom of the table.
It’s possible he could make an immediate impact but Braga, who have lost narrowly to Real Madrid and Napoli at the distinctive Municipal Stadium, look well priced at 11/10 to win against a squad bereft of confidence.

Real Mallorc v Cádiz

Match result draw 11-5.
Got 0-0 all over it and as I can’t bring myself to back teams not to score gone with the draw.
Both teams are poor and dont score many if any and the draw covers the unlikely outcome that both will score.
Prediction 4-4 ????

Done and dusted first half ?
All 8 CL Games 1st half goal 15/2
One I’m keen on tonight is early goals in the game between Real Sociadad and Salzburg
Last season R Sociadad went through a phase a some stage of the season of scoring early goals at home in La Liga
That trend seems to be happening again and will hopefully continue tonight.
In the reverse fixture they got 2 goals in the first half hour and they’ve scored in the first 10 minutes in last 2 home games
Goal before 27mins 5/6 NAP
Goal in first 10 mins 10/3
Harry Kane score two or more 2/1 Coral
Small stakes. Gabriel to be carded,BTTS,penalty awarded. Arsenal v Lens
Real Mallorc v Cádiz
20:00
Spanish La Liga
Match result draw 11-5.

Any night owl?
Betfair free punt…
Bahia v Sao Paulo 23.00 KO – 12/1+
Gilberto 1+ fouls & to be carded
Pablo Maia to be carded

Last 2 H2H there were 15 & 17 corners.
Pablo Maia has 7 cards this season and averages just under 2 fouls per game.
Gilberto has 4 cards this season & was booked in reverse fixture, averages 0.83 fouls per game.
Bayern Munich game letting gls acca tonight and 3/5 wi Leicester only scoring 1 gl plus Cadiz going ahead early doors finished on a big fat 0 corners. Bet365 price boost came in at Man utd game only saviour for today.
Audio ban, just in from work. Betfair do the BB offer, bet fiver get free bet win or lose.
Lakers v Pistons
Antony Davis +23.5 points. AD is the Romelu Lukaku of the basketball world, a flat track bully, and the track doesn’t get any flatter than the Pistons, who haven’t won in 14 games
Austin Reaves +14.5 points. In a team of superstars, Reaves is… just there. But against the Pistons, that’s all you need to be, there on the court. He’s covered this line 10 times this season, and this should be a good game to make that 11.
Rockets v Nuggets
Jokic +12.5 rebounds. This is the sort of high number I’d normally avoid but Jokic has already played against Houston twice this year and caught 21 and 19 in those games. Unless Houston have equipped their starting five with stilts, this should be a lock
