THE Champions League gave us plenty of thrills last week and it will be interesting to see how Ajax fare at Anfield tonight after battering Rangers in Amsterdam.
Just hours after the Dutch side romped to a 4-0 win, Liverpool were crushed 4-1 by Napoli and the defeat could have been even heavier.
It’s now just two wins in the last seven games for Jurgen Klopp’s side so I’m surprised to see them as McBookie’s 1/2 hot favourites with Ajax as big as 17/4.
That’s probably down to the Anfield factor and Liverpool will look to fly out of the traps, with over 1.5 first-half goals appealing at 15/13 with SportNation.
Rangers couldn’t live with Mohammed Kudus last week and he’s evens at Unibet just to have a shot on target tonight which looks great value.
Spurs beat Marseille last week but now travel to a Sporting Lisbon side who crushed Eintracht Frankfurt in Germany.
I fancy goals in this one, with over 2.5 strikes a best 10/11 with SBK and BTTS paying 7/9 at the same firm.
The glamour game tonight sees Bayern Munich host Barcelona as Robert Lewandowski returns to the Allianz Arena.
The Pole is 11/8 (Bet365) to haunt his old club with a goal and is always worth backing at those kind of odds.
But Bayern looked slick as they won at Inter last week so the 17/10 on offer at McBookie for a home win with BTTS is tempting.
Elsewhere, I’m doubling wins for Marseille and Inter, with that bet paying a best 185/100 at SBK.
- Super singles: Kudus shot on target (Evs, Unibet). Lewandowski to score (11/8, Bet365)
- McBookie bet builder: Combining BTTS with over 2.5 goals in Lisbon pays 113/100.
