RANGERS will be hoping Napoli take their foot of the gas tonight with the Serie A leaders having already sealed a place in the Champions League knockout stages.
But Luciano Spalletti’s red-hot side always play at full tilt and I’d expect them to go for the throat as they bid to nail down top spot in Group A.
Napoli ground out a 1-0 victory at Roma to make it 11 wins in a row but they’ve been averaging four goals in a game in Europe. So over 2.5 Napoli goals looks a good shout tonight and it pays evens at Betfair.
Giacomo Raspadori sat on the bench against Roma so I’d expect the striker to start tonight. He has netted four times already in the Champions League and is 6/4 with Bet365 for anytime scorer.
Ajax host Liverpool in the other group game and it should be a thriller. The Dutch side’s last five matches have been averaging over six goals so I like over 3.5 strikes here at 23/20 (McBookie).
Spurs can secure a slot in the last 16 with a home win over Sporting Lisbon and they need to deliver after successive domestic defeats.
Son-Heung Min was the star with a double in their last Euro game against Frankfurt and I cashed in by backing him to have over 1.5 shots on target.
The same bet pays 11/10 with Unibet tonight and I’ll be having another flutter on that.
The game of the night sees Barcelona host Bayern and the Catalans need a win to keep their faint hopes alive.
It bodes well for thrills and over 1.5 first-half goals pays 6/5 at William Hill.
