Champions League- Bank On Liverpool To Win

Liverpool look set to have Steven Gerrard fit to play against Marseille tonight and the Reds talisman can help them to the win that will be enough to se them qualify.

Liverpool have already beaten Marseille away from home and the French side haven’t shown enough to suggest they can win tonight. With the Kop behind them, a Liverpool win 9/20 (Partybets) is the bet to be on and we think they look set for a comfortable victory.

We’re predicting a 2-0 win 5/1 (VCBet) and it would be no surprise to see Steven Gerrard getting the first goal at 11/2 (Paddypower).

Chelsea will need to show far better form than they did away to Roma if they want to ensure qualification tonight in France against Bordeaux.

Chelsea are priced at 8/11 (Skybet) to get the win tonight, but we’re not so sure that’s a decent enough price to back them as they haven’t won away in the competition yet. They could only manage a goalless draw away in Romania against Cluj and we’re terrible against Roma when they lost 3-1. The Chelsea win isn’t a bet we can get excited about and we’re taking the draw 12/5 (Partybets) as our selection.

The correct score of 1-1 is our prediction and that scoreline is available at 5/1 (Partybets), Likely first goalscorer is Nicolas Anelka at 5/1 (Coral),

We think the best value bet of the night is Anorthosis to win at home against Werder Bremen. The Cypriot side can qualify with a win and if the occasion and expectation doesn’t get to them, they can win.

Onorthosis held the Germans to a 0-0 draw in Germany and they have already shown in their two home matches 3-3 against Inter and a 3-1 win over Panathinaikos that they like to go forward and are capable of scoring goals. At 11/4 (Bet365) Anorthosis look good value and we’re going for the home win.

We’re going to take a chance on a 3-2 win 33/1 (Coral) and suggest a small bet on Bardon 14/1 (Totesport) to be first goalscorer and at 5/1 (Skybet) to score anytime.

Inter Milan haven’t been too convincing in their home matches in the competition, but it would be a major shock if Panathinaikos were to grab a result in Italy. Panathinaikos did put in an excellent performance to beat Werder Bremen 3-0 in their last away match, but they will find Inter far tougher opponents.

It has to be a Milan win 2/7 (Bodog) and the 2-0 correct score 5/1 (Partybets) could be worth backing.

Roma travel to Romania looking to avenge an opening day shock 2-1 defeat by Cluj and at 5/6 (Bodog) they don’t look too bad a price to run out winners. Our correct score selection is 1-0 34/5 (Betfair). A bet on Francesco Totti at 5/1 (Partybets) to be first goalscorer has to be worth considering.

Atletico Madrid shouldn’t have too many problems in beating a PSV side that have looked outclassed against the big two of Atletico and Liverpool in this group.

Atletico to win 1/2 (Bet365) with a 3-0 correct score 9/1 (VCBet) are our selections in this match.

Shakhtar 4/9 (Bodog) look set for a home win against Basel and we think Barcelona will get a draw in Portugal against Sporting Lisbon at odds of 12/5 (Ladbrokes).
