TUESDAY'S Champions League games went pretty much as expected and hopefully it's more of the dame on Wednesday.
Liverpool are out to rescue the defence of their crown as they kick off at Anfield 1-0 down to Atletico Madrid.
Luckily for Jurgen Klopp this will be packed to the gunnels. The atmosphere won't spook Diego Simeone's tough Spanish outfit but often the Anfield faithful have lifted Liverpool to new heights and I'm backing them to qualify for the last eight.
PSG haven't been so lucky with fans locked out of their blockbuster return against Borussia Dortmund who lead 2-1.
I need over 2.5 match goals here to land my Champions League treble after Leipzig's win over Spurs and both teams scoring in Valencia. My Top Treble was a loser thanks to Sunderland and having said I didn't like the price I regret taking them.
I've posted a separate Champions League preview and check out SlipTips' PSG vs Dortmund match preview and kevinmac's thoughts on Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid.
I'd planned to have over 2.5 goals at Man City vs Arsenal in the Premiership on my treble but that was called off early this morning when it was revealed some Gunners players had met Olympiacos owner Evangelos Marinakis when the sides played in the Europa League a few weeks ago.
Marinakis has become ill and some Arsenal players have self-isolated. The Olympiacos vs Wolves tie on Thursday goes ahead despite complaints from the English side.
Instead of overs at City I'll go with both to score at Borussia Monchengladbach vs Cologne in the Bundesliga. Goals looks based on the form of both sides but not h2h.
There's one game in the Scottish Premiership with the bottom two meeting. St Mirren are three points ahead of Hearts and it looks a must not lose for the Tynecastle side.
Hearts followed wins against Rangers and Hibs with a draw at Motherwell but may struggle with the favourites' tag.
A draw is the most likely result but I'm on St Mirren draw no bet at 21-20 with McBookie as they have more experience in these type of tight battles.
Not much else on the go so I'm doing a treble on Liverpool to qualify, over 2.5 match goals at the Etihad and St Mirren not to lose.
Well done to all the winners on Tuesday including Scott with his members bet double, Greg with Dundee to beat Ayr and SlipsTips and kevinmac who both had winners on their match previews.
I'll post a Europa League preview later but can't resist Bayer Leverkusen to win at Rangers as a Super Single at 23-20.

Just about to go to bed and noticed that it’s fallen due to coronavirus and Arsenal players self-isolating. Have changed my treble.
Stranraer let me down last night on acca [free bet]. Silver Streak ran well to finish 6th.
Weds tips
With the Man City game being off my focus is probably just gonna be on one game today for the main bets, (had city 3+ fh corners in a double with Liverpool -2 corners as the NB) and that will be Liverpool v athletico. Can’t see this being anything other than attack v defence unless Liverpool score 2 early goals, and having read simeones comments yesterday it’s clear that the Spaniards are here to defend that 1 goal lead and nothing else. “It’s been 8 years, there will be no surprises in how we play” This leads me to 2 conclusions- there will be cards and corners. Atleti will sit deep defend the 18 yard box and use everything within the laws of the game (and some without) to stop Liverpool. Tactical fouls, time wasting and a few more of the “dark arts” will all be on display unless Liverpool score early doors. With this in mind it’s 2 betbuilders for me.

There not as good away as they are at home.
Any player booking fancies Sean or macca?
No joy with the Nap yesterday a goal short,It’s a good job for Spurs the season is coming to an end.
Atletico > 2.5 Cards 10/11 – Main Bet
GL all!
Spurs won’t make the top 6 this season. Vry poor last nite.
A few wks ago i said hull would be relegated from the championship. They were 66/1. I stuck a fiver on it. Just looked at there price now 2/1. Looking good. Bet365.
alex . I stuck a fiver on after reading your post mate . They are offering about 16/1 for the cash out Tempting buddy .
Hull at home to Charlton at the weekend. If Hull win they go 5 points clear, if they loose they are probably doomed. With 9 matches left 4 are against possible play off teams, 4 against fellow strugglers who I think should be beating Hull and Birmingham in no mans land, I class Charlton as the weakest link in the bet so it’s make your mind up time
Input from a Charlton or Hull fan would be handy.
Dropped so badly since they sold Jarrod Bowen. Great shout if it lands.
Anything can happen in that league. Charlton aint no mugs they drew with WBA a few weeks ago.Seen that bet posted of Hull 66/1 was going to jump on too but alas never. Fair play to you all who did.
St Mirren v Hearts
The two bottom teams face off tonight in what could be a meaty affair.
Pen taken 10/3 Hills
Red card 5/1 888sport
Each team over 1 card 13/8 Hills
The Premier league is going to be in chaos now,Arsenal players are self isolating which means their game at the weekend will be postponed,Wolves travel to Olympiakos in which the game goes ahead after Wolves wanted it postponed.Wolves will then return after the game and self isolate for 14 days.personally i can’t see the epl finishing.
Yeah they should just start again next season Haha
Call it null and void this year Macca.🤣
It depends on how quickly and how much the virus progresses. I think they’ll do everything possible to finish the season but many games could be behind closed doors.
On that note the Sevilla vs Roma EL tie is off after authorities refused to let the plane land and Getafe have refused to travel to Milan.
All these and yet there is gonna be 55000 fans at Anfield tonight. What’s the probability of 1 person there having it
Stick with your hull bet. They are only 2 points above the relegation zone. Dropping like a stone.
Yeah alex . They are getting hammered every week .
Unfortunately Charlton are dire as well.
Liverpool v Atletico
Over 1 card each team 11/8 must be worth a punt with Bet365
Also doubling it with the same bet at St Mirren. 4.38/1 Hills
Macca av thought that for ages and this is the icing on the cake. There will be no euro footy in the summer and Olympics will be cancelled to . It would be a nitemare if they took the league title away from Liverpool.
Its gonna happen Alex, liverpool will only win the club world cup. Always next year mate. No medal for Gerrard either
Absolutely no way they will take the league off Liverpool. If it got cancelled they would just declare a winner after a certain amount of games.
Liverpool would be declared the winner in the event of the league being cancelled,pretty sure they will have it wrapped up anyway before anything is decided.
Doubt the Euros will go ahead alex
Don’t panic alex we have Arsenal to play easy 3 points there.
**INPLAY**
81mins gone in Astana and there’s been 19 corners. Over 20.5 is 4/5 bet 365. Worth a point.
WON✅ Finished with 23.
Does anyone have good reason to think that PSG, the perennial floppers at this stage, will deliver tonight against a very good Dortmund side with zero fans roaring them on? There’s a question mark over Mbappe’s involvement as well. Double chance and Dortmund goals are piquing my interest
And Veratti is suspended, which I think is a big loss against Dortmund.
I wouldn’t touch Psg with anyone else’s money never mind my own lol
El gooner u live in hope Liverpool dont get the title. Dream on son. It will be a long time till your mob win it thats for sure.

Not as a manager. It will probably be a draw because there’s so much at stake but just feel Saints have more dig and Hearts have more football in them. Looks like a night for dig.

Never tried a leg. Bookies due to lose a fortune and horse comes nowhere. Wonder how many times that happens. It’s why I can never take horse racing seriously enough to Chuck good money at it.

https://mrfixitstips.co.uk/scottish-premiership-relegation-6-pointer-between-st-mirren-and-hearts/
Hey lads,
Quick one – I often see Mr. F. (And others) post a “money back 5-fold” on Ladbrokes. My question is how do these people get this? Literally never seen it myself, excuse my ignorance please.
Cheers
There’s nothing “to get”. You just place a 5 fold acca with ladbrokes and if you get 1 wrong you get your stake back as a free bet. Markets include wdw, match goals, btts, result/btts and correct score. Do not take the boost as this voids the moneyback aspect.
Max stake is £10
Thanks Sean. Guess I misunderstood the meaning behind acca insurance
Sean567, as far as I’m aware, you CAN take the boost without voiding the “money back 5-fold” (I regularly do over 1.5 goals boosted ACCAs on French League 2 etc with Ladbrokes, and always get a free bet when one leg is down)
In fact, I had 2 free bets from boosted ACCAs last week alone.
HTH :)
Oh right cheers Chris they never used to allow it, must have relaxed that. Good to know 👍🏻
Most of it’s done automatically. I try to do my moneyback accas with McBookie but loads of firms do it.
In shops Ladbrokes and Paddy Power are two who offer them using loyalty cards.

Atletico score(which they will) and Liverpool need 3 which they won’t manage against the masters of defending.Not scoring an away goal in this completion generally comes back to bite you on the bum. I know Liverpool overcame Barcelona last year but this is a different kettle of fish.
GL with all bets
Just a word of caution…stmirren and hearts have played twice in last 6 months and over the 2 games there’s been a grand total off 2 bookings.ano everyone’s expecting a fiesty game BUT the previous games don’t back this up.last game at tyncastle finished 5-2 hearts and at love st finished 0-0 so very difficult game to call on everything.
Good shout Jim
I dont think both teams were in danger of being relegated then Jim.

Anyway small stake bet
Mbappe to score and PSG to win 3:1
Salah to score and Liverpool 2:1
May the mighty luck be with us 2nite and may this be a very profitable night for all!
Dont think Mbappe is fit.
Anyone on my treble running from yesterady can cover with under 2.5 goals at PSG at 3-1. I’m leaving it for now.
Mbappe isn’t 100 per cent – was tested for coronavirus yesterday.

Liverpool now play extra time.
This gives athletico an extra 30 minutes to score an away goal.
To make it fair they should then all catch a flight to Spain and play 30 there to even it up 🤔🤔
I’m a Man United fan so no bias here.
Away goals should be scrapped after 90 minutes. It was same in Caraboo Cup semi its boll***s
Said it last week when arsenal went out. It’s unfair regardless that the home team has advantage of second leg at home or not. Your giving 1 team 90 mins to get an away goal and 1 team 120. How’s that fair.
Then why dont lpool offer to play both legs in Madrid and then Athletico couldnt score any away goal…So mumpty nonsense. Come on Madrid….get in there………
Wow
2-2 after 1st period of et. Liverpool staring at cl exit unless they score 2 in 15 mins

Have to say, cant remember the last time iv been so impressed with a referee performance.
Reckon they should bin all the english refs and bring in foreign ones as the standard seems so much higher. Im sure a couple of teams wouldn’t be too happy about it but would defo make the game better/fairer
😂😂😂 I’m feckin raging with him
Yeah, downed a few bets for me also but the guy let the game flow beautifully. No stupid bias either. Fair play to him. Hope he gets to ref the final.
He let play flow etc but you have to get cards out when folk are kicking/throwing the ball away. He’s a 🚀

What will happen with the matches some being played with a home crowd but next week play at home with no crowd will that possibly impact results also.
It certainly takes away home advantage
Happening tomorrow at ibrox. Don’t think that will save rangers tho.
It’s making me think twice about betting on games to be honest.
It doesn’t seem fair and Bayer Bosz has said this today but it’s better to have one game with fans than none.
Probably next weekend we won’t have any big games with supporters.
Team to avoid on bets are Liverpool , they have been absolutely awful ever since macca the scouse tried to compare them with the prem greats of the recent past ie: Man Uniteds treble winning kings and Arsenals untouchables,look like a side crying out for a bit of the management knowhow that Ole brings or the finishing prowess of an Ighalo.
Couldn’t agree more Sean Ireland getting a bit carried away with themselves as usual…. Not won a title for 30 years and all of a sudden it’s the greatest team the PREM as seen
Things change in the blink of an eye in football.
Well said Sean.
This Liverpool side wouldn’t match either of those 2 sides.
It’s a ridiculous comment and I’m sure macca will have a response.
Liverpool were the better team tonight and the difference was the keepers – one very good and one making a bad mistake.
Think it’s just a bit of banter Mr F. A bit of a dig at Macca as he’s constantly telling us what a great side they are and how the race for the top champion league will be interesting between Wolves, Leicester, Sheff United etc. etc. every team in the top ten excluding Man United in with a chance.
Now that was a ridiculous statement
I know but it’s pretty unfair. Liverpool were really unlucky not to win in 90 minutes.
Newts is spot on mrF.
Haven’t won a premier league title for 30years but somehow they’re the greatest team to grace the earth yet out of all cup comps and beaten in the league.
I was more thinking about tonight’s game. And when you look at the present they’ll be champions so give him his moment – he’s waited long enough.
No joy at Anfield tonight, poor finishing and couple of poor referee decisions let’s down the NAP and NB. Well done all winners
Well, that’s now both of last year’s champions league finalist out.
Klopp sounding as gracious as ever. 😂
There’s a video going about of him telling his own fans to “put your f**king hands away you idiots” as he walks out the tunnel and folk are wanting a high 5 😂😂😂 The corona fear
😂😂😂😂😂
Yip. Sore losers. Just been the “very best” of a mediocre bunch to win the league this season. That’s not a dig at their performances, but, they have played other teams that are, well, crap mostly. And I wish people would stop glorifying it as the best league in the world.
You can only beat what’s put in front of you. It’s the richest league but not the best.
