Arsenal are suffering a massive dose of jitters on the domestic front but they continue to hold their Champions League nerve and should seal a semi-final slot at home to Sporting Lisbon tonight.
Three successive defeats on the home front against Manchester City, Southampton and Bournemouth have left Gunners fans fearing another season without major silverware.
But during that dismal run they've managed to grind out a 1-0 victory in Lisbon and that has left them in command of the quarter-final as Sporting head to the Emirates.
Arsenal vs Sporting Lisbon top betting tips
Mikel Arteta's men are just 1/20 with most firms to reach the semi-finals and even a win on the night offers little value at 1/2 with Ladbrokes.
Sporting need to have a go but I'm not expecting them to be gung-ho with just a single-goal deficit to overturn.
It could be another cagey game, although Arsenal will want to kill the tie early and get the fans back onside after a listless weekend performance.
So I'm going to back the Gunners to win the first half, which pays a decent evens at BetMGM.
It was Declan Rice who stepped up for Arteta in last season's quarter-final, scoring a memorable double against Real Madrid in London.
But he's a major injury doubt while the Gunners are also sweating on Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard. One Arsenal player who does look set to start is Viktor Gyokeres and the striker is evens with Paddy Power to score or assist against his former clib.
Bayern Munich vs Real Madrid
Bayern Munich are now favourites to go all the way in the UEFA Champions League but they still need to finish the job at home to Real Madrid in their quarter-final tonight.
Vincent Kompany's men were hugely impressive at the Bernabeu last week as they eased into a 2-0 lead but Kylian Mbappe's consolation has given the Spanish giants some hope.
It's now three games without a win for Real Madrid in all competitions and the bookies can't see that poor run ending in Munich.
You rarely see the 15-time winners as big as 4/1 for a Champions League game and the odds increase to 13/2 at Paddy Power if you back them to qualify.
A big feature of last week's game was how Michael Olise took Real full-back Alvaro Carreras to the cleaners.
The Bayern winger should get more joy at home and looks good at 13/8 with Bet365 for an assist while backing him to score pays 7/4 at SkyBet.
If Carreras stars again, backing him for over 1.5 fouls could also pay off at 13/8 with QuinnBet.
AFC Wimbledon vs Stockport County
There's a couple of games in EFL League One tonight and the clash between AFC Wimbledon and Stockport County is the most interesting.
The Dons are hovering just three points above the drop zone while Stockport County are looking to cement a place in the promotion play-offs.
So it's a big night for both teams and County will be desperate to bounce back after suffering Wembley heartache at the weekend.
They lost 3-1 to Luton in the EFL Trophy Final but have a great chance to get back to winning ways with AFC Wimbledon in such dismal form.
A 1-0 weekend loss to Burton made it six defeats and a draw in their last seven games so it's easy to see why Stockport are just 19/20 at Betfred for a win tonight.
Former St Johstone striker Adama Sidibeh has scored in his last four for County and is 13/5 at BetMGM to keep up that hot streak.

Only a small punt master for an interest mate
Arsenal v sporting
Over 2.5 goals
Declan rice 1 shot on target outside the box
7/2
Going to have a go on Real Madrid over 2 corners at 29/20 and over 3 corners at 15/4 in play. Currently on 0 but I fancy Bayern to get the equaliser and Madrid then having to push again. That’s the theory anyway 👍😂
Why not,gone for match corners as also fancy Madrid to contribute to the corner count,slybet pulled corners who’s that bet with?
Going in again over 3.5 now 4/1
Boylesports
