JOSE MOURINHO grounded out a 1-0 win away to Benfica and did the same against Spurs at the weekend.
Another 1-0 is possible when the Portuguese visit Old Trafford tonight and that pays 11-2 at Unibet.
United will be on plenty of accumulators at 2-5 with Betfred but best bet could be to win to nil at 11-10 with boylesports.
The other Group A game features surprise package Basel at home to CSKA Moscow. The Swiss won 2-1 in Russia and face a side that's scored just one goal in five games in all competitions. A best price of 7-8 at sportingbet is tempting.
Chelsea travel to Roma trying to progress from Group C but may have to settle for a draw. A 3-3 thriller last time out saw the Blues pegged back from 3-1 up at Stamford Bridge.
Roma are a decent outfit who usually don't concede that many and in fact have recorded three 1-0 wins since that clash in London. They rested key men at the weekend and will be ready to go. The draw pays 13-5 at Paddy Power.
Atletico Madrid will be hoping for a draw or Chelsea win as they try to get back into the mix after taking just two points from their first three games. A 0-0 at Qarabag last time out was a shocker and they should get back on track tomight.
They are just 1-7 to win so tough to find value with a team that hasn't been scoring many. Maybe back Antoine Griezmann to score first at 13-5 with McBookie.
Group D is being dominated by big guns Barcelona and Juventus. Barca won 3-1 at home to Olympiakos despite playing most of the match with 10 men and should win in Greece.
The Spaniards are now eight clear of Real Madrid in La Liga where they have won nine out of 10 and are unbeaten in 15 since being embarrassed in the Spanish Super Cup.
Barca are a short price to win but I have them at 3-10 -1AH on the Top Treble. Lionel Messi is 21-10 at McBookie to score first.
Juventus travel to Sporting and will tempt many at evens with Unibet. It's a really fair price even though they struggle to see off the Portuguese 2-0 at home.
Juve have won three in a row since then, netting 12 goals, and look back to somewhere near their best. They should win and on the Top Treble I've taken them draw no bet at 5-12 with Unibet.
